SUMMARY:Brutalist Architecture Walk
DESCRIPTION:An afternoon walk finishing with an option for an early evening pizza near Norwood Junction station. \nMeet at East Croydon station at 2pm. \nThe title of the walk\, as put forward to the Copse November planning meeting\, is “The brutalist architecture of Croydon and South Norwood”. I got the idea from an event at Bookseller Crow entitled “Concretopia: a brutal decade” a talk by Croydon author John Grinrod which was attended by Val\, Alan and myself. This was supplemented by the “Little Manhattan” audio tour supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and more recently by Elain Harwood’s “Brutalist Britain” which includes buildings in Croydon and South Norwood. \nMost of the buildings we will visit will be in central Croydon so we will leave from outside East Croydon station at 2pm. If anyone is running late (hopefully not!) my number is 07931 533785. Due to weekend engineering works we will later take one of the several buses that run between Croydon and South Norwood to see the last few buildings on my tour there. I plan to end the tour at the Shelverdine Goathouse pub (7-8 High Street\, South Norwood SE25 6EP) for drinks and then to order in takeaways to the pub (they don’t charge for this) from local eateries of your choice eg pizza\, Chinese\, Thai should wish to stay for something to eat. \nFOR THOSE WISHING TO STAY FOR OR JUST COME TO THE GOATHOUSE PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP SO I CAN ENSURE WE HAVE SUFFICIENT SEATING  \nThank you and I look forward to seeing you on Saturday \nJulie \n

SUMMARY:Day trip to Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:We’ll be aiming to take the 9.01am direct train from East Croydon which is due to arrive 10.41am at Cambridge.  Meet at East Croydon station from 8.30am. \nWe have a guide for the day\, so we’ll all have a much closer look at some of the famous colleges\, “the backs” and the river cam but feel free to go off on your own if you want to. There is a lunch stop at ‘The Granta pub’ on the river Cam.  If time allows we will also go to a famous ‘back street’ pub for drinks before heading back to Cambridge station at about 7pm for a direct train back to East Croydon. \n \n

SUMMARY:Countryside Walk - 7ish miles
DESCRIPTION:Here are details of my countryside walk on Sunday 10 March 2024.  Approx 7 miles (ok maybe 8).  An early (for some) start: \n\nMeet at East Croydon train station ticket hall at 9.15am.  (This will delight Barry.) \n\nWe catch the 9.31am train to Chipstead.   We return later in the day from somewhere further down that line\, sorry not sure which station yet\, so if you don’t want to use Oyster / contactless\, suggest buy a return to Tattenham Corner.   Or if you prefer\, buy a return to Chipstead and a single for the rest at the relevant station later.   (The whole line is in Oyster zone 6.) \n\nWe will walk via the outstanding landscape around Chipstead\, Mugswell\, Colley Hill\, Walton Heath etc.   Do bring some packed refreshments and drink with you as there is no planned indoor lunch stop.  However I will try to include a café and or the Sportsman pub at Mogador – but doubtful there will be room or time to sit and have a proper meal.   We will likely reach our destination and return station around 3.30pm where there may be an opportunity for a more leisurely pub stop.  But don’t bank on it. \n\nSorry if details are a bit sketchy\, left it a bit late to check and my first choice has been thwarted by a rail replacement bus between Purley and Redhill.   That does not impact Tattenham Corner line. \n\nWear boots or wellies in expectation of mud. \n\nRegards \nAndrew \n07985 936953

SUMMARY:Walk: City of London Livery Companies
DESCRIPTION:On saturday (23rd) we’ll be having a closer look at some of the city’s livery company halls + courtyards where the plan is as follows:		 \nMeet at EastCroydon Station from 9.15am to take the 9.30am (approx) Thameslink train to Blackfriars Station (North side). \nA “clockwise” walk around the city from Blackfriars Station to London Bridge Station which will also include a quiz + pub stop somewhere.		 \nAs some of us are going to Ruskin House’s “charity” concert that night\, we’ll be aiming to get back to East Croydon by 5pm which will give us plenty of time to have a meal + drinks in “The Spread Eagle” pub before heading off to Ruskin House anytime from 7pm.
