  • Southern Railway Stations in South London
    Southern Railway stations in South London The south London area stations of Southern Region of British Railways and its constituents tend to be somewhat neglected, perhaps due to the prevalent suburban electric services, but comprised some fine examples of former company architecture. The following pictures were all taken in August 1973; a few of the sites have since disappeared, many others surely much modernised by now, and some have even been nicely restored...... First, we look at the former South Eastern Railway branch line from Purley to Caterham. Here is Kenley, whose cottage-style station house with very steep-pitched roof and gothic detailing is now a listed building, but privately owned. It dates from the construction of the Caterham Railway in 1856 and is by architect Richard Whittall. Below is Whyteleafe, (left) down side waiting room and footbridge, and the signal box and level crossing at Whyteleafe South...... The signalbox nameboard shows that the station had been re-signed with modern British Rail white enamel plates; in late 1972 I found one of the much more attractive 1950-era station nameplates for sale in an antique shop near Paddington station, for the pricely sum of £2.50p. In contrast the teminus station building at Caterham still displayed its “Southern Electric” enamelware...... Here are two more views at Caterham, with the SE&CR wooden signalbox at right...... Moving on to Anerley, this is an ex London Brighton & South Coast Railway station on its line from London Bridge to West Croydon, just to the north of Norwood Junction. At least part of the main building is thought to date from the line opening in 1839.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www. london.gov.uk/publication/all-london-green-grid-spg .

Faulkner 43 Oaks Drive, Colchester, Essex CO3 3PS Phone 01206 767023 E-mail [email protected] ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING The 44 th Annual General Meeting was held on Sunday 18 May based on St. Mary’s Church Hall, Westry, March in Cambridgeshire. The day started off with a visit to the nearby boatyard operated by Fox Narrow Boats where we were met by Paula Syred, daughter of the late Charlie Fox who had established the business in 1959. Members were given an interesting presentation of how the company had developed before looking round the marina and being able to inspect two of the current hire boats – Leisurely Fox and Silver Fox - both of which looked extremely smart. And then it was back to St. Marys where we were fortunate in being able to look round the recently restored church that had suffered an arson attack four years ago. Members then enjoyed an excellent luncheon laid on by Margaret Martin and her team before turning to the formal business of the day. 2 The Director’s Report and Accounts for the year ending 30 June 2013 were duly, approved before Alan Faulkner, David Mercer and Jeff Walters were re-elected as Directors and John Cordran was re-elected as Accounts Scrutineer. Chris Black then gave a full report about the progress on the North Walsham & Dilham Canal and the meeting concluded with a report by Chairman Roger which centred round the Environment Agency’s reduction in dredging and maintenance.

  • 1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill 1.1
    1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill 1.1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill Area Vision 1.1.1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill are: • On the boundary of Lambeth, Croydon and Bromley; • An edge of town centre location situated to the north of Upper Norwood District Town Centre; • Characterised by a range of housing types including Victorian terrace and semi-detached family housing, typical of a 19th-century railway suburb, alongside more modern housing types; • An area with plentiful public open spaces and in close proximity to Crystal Palace Park, Dulwich Upper Wood and Norwood Park offering panoramic views towards Central London. • Accessible by rail from mainline stations to Gipsy Hill station and bus routes, however there is no tube connection and the area is less well served by public transport than many other parts of Southwark. 1.1.2. Development in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill should: • Preserve and enhance the character of Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill; • Complement, and not detract from, the economic function of Upper Norwood town centre; • Provide as many homes as possible across a range of tenures including social housing; • Prioritise walking and cycling and improve public transport to reduce pressure on car parking and improve accessibility; • Support improvements to local connectivity and accessibility including enhanced public transport, walking and cycling routes; • Support improvements to local services to meet local needs, including for school places and GP provision. 1.1.3. Growth opportunities in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill: Whilst development opportunities in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill are relatively limited, the area has the potential to contribute towards meeting Southwark’s housing need.
