I love this area for the hills, and keeping my beloved city in view during lockdown.


I discovered the golf club view by accident, now I get there regularly. Waiting for the mud to clear from Sydenham woods and I can discover a different way home.

Can recommend Blythe Hill Fields from our recent walking excursions, also a good walk up to the Peabody Estae above Rosendale Road. We actually walked to the Rookery Garden in Streatham the other day (bit of a hike but got to see something different)!

Thank you for those! I watched the next one as well (Upper Norwood and Crystal Palace).


Very interesting!

I love The Rookery!


There's a nice little cafe there (when it's open) and also a mini brewery near the community garden there.

Keep your eye on the road though, rather than admiring the view! Canobie is a right XXXX to cycle up. Others agree https://www.broleur.com/top-ten-toughest-cycling-climbs-london-bergs/ When I first walked around the area it was a hidden gem. Still a gem but no longer hidden

    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead
