Memories Of Croydon In The 60's

A Memory of Croydon.

I used to go to Parish Church School by the Church in Croydon then it moved to Duppas Hill. I went onto St Andrews. I have fond memories of Wilsons coffee shop & Bakers in George Street. Also Kennards Arcade my sister used to supply the baby rabbits to the Pet Shop. The donkey rides and of course Father Christmas. The huddle and bustle of Surrey Street and looking down on it from Grants Self Service Cafe having an ice cream. I remember the thrill of going to see a film at The Fairfield Halls and a play at the Ashcroft. Also going to The Astoria cinema at South Croydon. My Mother worked at the Town Hall as a telephonist during the war. Wonderful memories
