The Six Bells Handcroft Road
A Memory of Croydon.
I'm not a native of Croydon, but I remember visiting The Six Bells when my uncle was the landlord there during the 1960s. I was in the army at that time, based in Harrogate, Yorkshire and when heading for home in Weymouth when on leave, I would lodge there overnight on my way. My uncle's name was Ralph Beaden, and aunt was Chris (Christine). They sold Courage beers if my memory serves me correctly and I enjoyed many a pint there. Upstairs, at the front of the building over the public bar, there was a meeting room that was used by the Buffs (Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffalos). My uncle and aunt moved out the The Six Bells sometime in the late 1960s and took on The Hare and Hounds at Upper Warlingham.
