The housing association flats here were built after some dilapidated Victorian terraces were cleared in the 1970s. At the same time, roads that had run straight through the area were converted to slightly curved culs-de-sac. Chipstead Close is the southern half of a road that used to run through to the Paxton Arms, whose white-painted side can be seen in the middle distance. Beyond, on the other side of Anerley Hill, is the pointed roof of Crystal Palace station.
