Selsdon & Addington Village
Croydon, London
Selsdon & Addington Village sits on the south-eastern edge of Croydon, a deep outer-suburban ward where the streets give way to the wooded commons and the old village church at Addington. Nature is the dominant asset: 221 hectares of green space, including the 48.9-hectare Addington Hills and the grounds of Grade II* Addington Palace, once the summer residence of six Archbishops of Canterbury. Heathfield and Addington House add two further Grade II entries, pollution scores are very strong at 94 and safety sits comfortably above the London median. The drawbacks are the ones that come with the acreage. Public-transport access is only moderate, with the Tramlink and bus services the main options and no rail station inside the ward, and only two outstanding-rated schools sit within reach, which is shallow for such a deep catchment. The conservation area covers around six percent of the ward.
