I have been asked to add this event to the forum as it is such an amazing place. Definitely - South London's Hidden Gem.

View the website www.crossness.org.uk. The next steaming day is the 22nd May. Come along, you will have a fantastic time.

At the last steaming day in April a number of people came who use the forum and they were so impressed they asked if I can spread the word. It is the most extravagant of all the grand pumping stations which is not well known.

If you need to use public transport, there is a minibus to and from Plumstead Railway station from 10am and then approximately every half hour as there are some engineering works further down the line.

See you there

We went to this a couple of years ago. I wasn't too sure but we really enjoyed it and came away well informed, one beam engine was operating, we took many pics in an unprepossessing building,inside, a Victorian wonder dressed in red and green.

Then we had a picnic in Lessness Abbey ruins and walked through the woods. Flat shoes recommended

    • The dustmen kindly broke my garden gate this morning,  so I am looking for a replacement.  I could make a complaint to the council, however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. Many thanks. 
    • My front gate has expired! Does anyone have an unwanted one - ideally wrought iron? Many thanks. 
    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery.
