Pitlake Bridge Area

I was born in Clarendon Road and live there now. Pitlake bridge years ago before it was changed to Jubilee bridge had shops on either side, provision shop Hallidays?, the butchers, a hairdressers, Wally Whitbourne's grocery shop, sweet shop, Weenole's newspaper shop, fish & chips, the right hand side had another sweet shop, a tv etc shop, the pubs were down further and the Alms Houses, Cottons?, the baby store and the veg shop and the traffic lights and so forth. I went to Tavistock Secondary Modern Girls' School where there were steps going down Pitlake bridge where there is now a Church/Mission Hall. I remember The Black Boy, the Six Bells public house, Reeves, another fish shop in Handcroft Road, the Post Office on the corner of Derby Road. I was one of the girls that worked with the horses in the ring in Kennards and also went to Beddington Park on a Sunday giving rides to the children, ponies were called Maisy, Lane, Snowy, Sceptre, Susan etc. The smaller Sheltand ponies with bells round their knecks went round outside. The Kennards arcade was great. Croydon was very nice in my childhood. I am wondering where I can get any photos of the old Pitlake Bridge? There was also a hostel known as a doss house on one side of Pitlake bridge, a bakers and an off licence. Anyone else with memories of this area? Christine Brown/Brooks
