Did you see that Croydon asylum seeker kicking was actually Bridle Road? Good old Shrublands... glad my mum is well out of there now.Originally Posted by Burney
I spent half my childhood in that 'rec' and my primary school was on that road.
I remember it very fondly. Complete shďthole now, of course.

Yeah. Funny thing about Shrublands is that it's not really the typical inner-Croydon shíthole the papers are painting it as. It's an ill-conceived rough housing estate that sits rather incongruously in some otherwise quite nice areas like West Wickham (which is Bromley, of course, but never mind) and Shirley.
