All part of the Cator Estate I think. The Cators used to own most of Beckenham and some parts of Penge.

^^^ correct ^^^


It's a handful of roads Norwood side of Kent House station (the one the other side has now been tarmaced). Barnmead Road, which is the main one, has houses worth around a million and yet the road is this dusty gravel affair.


The pub in Penge that is being Antic'd is the Goldsmiths. Fair sized pub with big garden and kitchen so expect it to be very popular. Still hopes that Late Knights will be taking over Alexandra too by the Conservation area (negotiations continue) so soon Penge will have an actual decent pub crawl to enjoy.

    • The big difference, other than increasingly flaking paint, seems to be graffiti. The question is, will that/ can it be controlled?
    • I took back my 🤣 because I think the idea is unworkable expensive and would produce little result.  There seems to be people in the office next to the toilet but I don’t think they leave the office. I’m not sure what they do there.  The toilets have been in a disgusting state for months and months with many promises to repair they are not functional and they invite vandalism. I shall  try to add a couple of photos. The council doesn’t care why should we?
    • There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
    • Its almost the same as Grove Vale School , now Goose Green School.
