Local guide


About Croydon

Croydon may not be the most obvious choice for a neighbourhood when visiting London, however it still has a lot to offer. While it is far out from central London, the transport links are excellent, with fast trains straight into London Bridge. At the moment the area is in the midst of a redevelopment project, so it's mainly a residential spot. But, hotspots such as Boxpark (the larger version of its Shoreditch sibling), Surrey Street Market and Matthew's Yard means there is plenty of activity on the weekends.
