The West Croydon Line veers left
Up to this point, the line runs along the bed of the former Croydon Canal. In earlier times it continued to do so, running straight on, but remodelling of the complicated series of flyovers and junctions ahead led to a realignment.

Light Industry in Gloucester Road
There is a wide variety of light industry on either side of Gloucester Road. In the centre of the picture is Roberts Cycles, who make top quality hand-made cycles. I have owned several of their cycles over the years.

Path parallel to railway
This follows the railway as far as St. James's Road. As the railway was laid on the bed of the Croydon Canal, it has been suggested this was once the towpath.

Anonymous postbox, Davidson Road
An "anonymous" postbox on Davidson Road by its junction with Stretton Road - see Image for a wider view. The lack of royal cipher, hence the description "anonymous", is a particular feature of boxes dated between 1879 and 1887 manufactured by the firm Handyside during this period. The positioning of the aperture implies that this box dates from before 1883, later ones having the aperture positioned lower down.
Note the "Banksy"-style stencilled rat on the front - I assume it's not genuine!
