New Addington Community Centre, Central Parade, New Addington, CR0
Conceived in the 1930s, the First National Housing Trust began a 'Garden Village' on what was then farmland, as a slum-clearance project. The New Addington estate was mainly developed in the 1950s as a massive semi-rural council estate, and despite right-to-buy amelioration of the social profile, it is still hardly one of the nicer districts. One of the largest estates in London not served by rail, it was a main reason for constructing Tramlink.

Bus stop 'D', New Addington
The New Addington Health Centre is visible in the background. This stop is the first picking up point for two routes that start from here, the 314 to Bromley North and the 464 to the 'Old Ship', Tatsfield. The 464 has a half-hourly headway seven days a week; the 314 is more frequent. Both of these routes are worked with single-deck vehicles.

The Octagon Cyber Cafe, New Addington
This building was formerly a public convenience. Speaking personally, I wish it still was. The tram terminus is visible in the left background.

New Addington, Central Parade bus terminus
In February 1985, South Croydon Garage was supplied with a whole brand-new fleet of Class M double deckers for working the local routes. Many, as with M1167 shown here on its first day in service, were allocated to the New Addington routes 130 and 130B. The folly of this quickly became apparent as the buses returned to the garage covered in graffiti and with etched windows. The cerebrally-challenged local youth had been having a field day.
