New South Quarter is a large housing development recently built on vacant land along the Purley Way (the 1920s Croydon by-pass). The whole landscape around the middle Purley Way is a Ballardesque expanse of dual carriageway, car parks and retail sheds. For the other side of New South Quarter, see Image
