Pitlake Bridge

Maybe a bit later but I remember a shop on Pitlake Bridge that sold unusual foreign plastic kits and Toys - There was another in Southbridge Road as well, or maybe the same one moved there.. I also recall going into a sort of bookshop with a small printing press near the window. My Dad was a printer and I think wanted to show me the machine. From what I know now, this must have been a left wing / anarchist hangover from the Croydon Brotherhood Church of the turn of the century. Does anyone else remember these, both on the actual raised bit of the bridge near Reeves Corner? Something I will always regret is in the late 1960s when an old photographers and wireless shop opposite Reeves Corner closed down. There was skip FULL of old photos and radio valves being thrown out. I did salvage a few - but that must have been a treasure trove lost forever.
