Post or Ask something here in 'South Norwood' South Norwood South Norwood - Is it nice?Hi, I am thinking of moving to South Norwood. The property is off Whitehorse Lane, very close to South Norwood Hill. Is it a nice place for a couple to live?

Am 23 weeks pregnant and wondered if there were any groupd or classes I could join tp meet other pregnant women in the area. Thanks! Post reply -->London South Norwood Mazz 22 Feb South Norwood South NorwoodThanks for tip re. residents assoc. An old workmate lived near the stadium and he said wasn't a problem as fans well behaved. Might be a problem getting a parking space during the match. Traffic is busy for an hour before and after a game but only every other weekend and not all year as football is seasonal. Post reply -->London South Norwood Rachel 17 Feb South Norwood whats it like to live next to Selhurst Park?I am looking into buying a flat on park road, off of holmsdale road which is very close to the football ground. I currently live in Brockley in the conservation area which is lovley, but it's too expensive to buy here. What's it like living so close to the stadium. What's it like on match day? Is it very noisy? Is it safe? Post reply -->London South Norwood seppo 17 Feb South Norwood Is portland road safeHi buying on Ingatestone Road and was wondering how safe it was walking along Portland Road from the train station at night. Also, I have heard money is being put into Portland Road (not buying due to this just co-incidence). Can anyone advise? Post reply -->London South Norwood Rachel 4 Feb ^ South NorwoodFor info as well as contacts/ links about South Norwood, the South Norwood Residents Association is very helpful; check them out and contact them via www.snra.org.uk. On a side note, my elderly mother lives in South Norwood. The neighbours on her road are extremely friendly, she loves going for walks in the South Norwood Country Park which is teaming with wildlife, and the trams are excellent. Post reply -->London South Norwood CG 8 Feb ^ South Norwood Friendly PeopleSouth Norwood Fresh FishIs there a fishmongers in South Norwood? I cant seem to get any fresh fish/seafood except at the Sainsburys. Thanks Post reply -->London South Norwood NA 17 Jan ^ South Norwood Fresh fishI'm not aware of a fresh fish shop in South Norwood but there's a very good one in West Norwood, Norwood Rd. It's about 10 mins drive/bus north (so long as you don't try it during rush hour!) just before a large B&Q. The 196 or 468 will take you straight there. Post reply -->London South Norwood Becky 2 Feb South Norwood S. Norwood - Decline or Ascendant? 1I lived in oliver grove for 18 years, moved away in 1977 and still visit my elderly relly's fairly regularly. Seeing all the worries about how Safe it is, I thought I should add my tuppence worth. As far as I can tell violence, assault and theft is as common now as it was in the early sixties, the only difference is that it is all publicised now. several good friends at school in the 70s were stabbed at one time or another, but then another had his head severed by a shotgun blast in crystal palace in the early eighties. continued in next post ... Post reply -->London South Norwood Ex Stanley Tech person 15 Jan South Norwood S. Norwood - Decline or Ascendant? 2continued from previous post... Now don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to suggest that such things are rife, just that the worsening state is a myth. I now live in a small village in sussex and a recent stabbing adds to the list that includes a machine gunning in 1945. So I'd suggest chilling out about the fear. Where there is some truth however, is in the well documented outward progression of urban decay that radiates from London. In the early 70s crystal palace was a dump, and thornton heath was quite a village, now C.P. has gentrified and Thornton Heath is on the cusp. continued in next post ... Post reply -->London South Norwood Ex Stanley Tech person 15 Jan South Norwood S. Norwood - Decline or Ascendant? 3continued from previous post... From many years observation I would say that the portland road area, (not the woodside end) has always been a bit Down market, while around the lake and up the hill a bit up market. while east and west towards penge and croydon are fairly mixed and reflect the state of the next towns along. Watching the decay radiate out, it seems obvious that the thornton heath end of S Norwood has become more like streatham was 20 years ago, while the hill seems to be doing more like Crystal Palace. continued in next post ... Post reply -->London South Norwood Ex Stanley Tech person 15 Jan South Norwood S. Norwood - Decline or Ascendant? 4continued from previous post... So where will it stop? My prediction is: that in 20 years time, S Norwood High street will be a Shi-shi pedestrianised heritage high street with restaurants and interior decor shops/florists while upper Portland Road will be a trendy Deli, bar type area with independant shops. Woodside green on the other hand will be a police no-go area and burnt out car recycling yard and there will be a border (with checkpoints) between west croydon. The Island on Norwood lake will become a tapas bar and the Rec will be planted as an arboretum. But before any of this can happen South Norwood Clock Tower must once again be painted Matt White, as it was intended to be. continued in next post ... Post reply -->London South Norwood Ex Stanley Tech person 15 Jan South Norwood S. Norwood - Decline or Ascendant? 5continued from previous post... What do I miss? Manual doors on trains! You could alway get home in the early hours by catching the fast train from Viccy to gatwick and get off at the closed Selhurst station because the train used to slow to walking speed. Post reply -->London South Norwood Ex Stanley Tech person 15 Jan South Norwood POST / MAILIs anybody else noticing the later and later delivery of daily post/mail, and the delays. I don't think it's a knock on from the strike. It was occurring before this. One night a few months ago the postman delivered at 10.15pm NO LIE. I SPOKE WITH HIM. HE WAS DOING OVERTIME . It seems too that thinhs being sent first class are either arriving very late in afternoon the following day , but more commonly, 2-3 days later. I have been monitoring this as I have been waiting for important documents more than once very recently Post reply -->London South Norwood PJ 3 Nov South Norwood Any good doctors in south Norwood?It looks like I may have to move back to South Norwood after 27 years living somewhere else (unfortunately!) , and as I suffer from a variety of serious illnesses finding a good compassionate GP is an absolute must, So does anyone know of one in and around selhurst park football ground? Someone who is actually willing to listen to what a patent says to them. Yeah, a tall order I know! Post reply -->London South Norwood Sue 23 Sep |
