Addington Palace, Croydon
Addington Palace was built in the 1770s as Addington Place, replacing the earlier manor house of the same name, home of the Leigh family. In 1807 an Act of Parliament purchased the mansion and estate for the use of the Archbishops of Canterbury. Six archbishops lived at Addington Palace, five of them being buried in St Mary's churchyard, Addington. It has been a golf club since about 1930.

Gravel Hill tram stop
Unless you hold a pass or have a season ticket, you must buy your ticket from the machine on the platform before you board the car, as there is no conductor and the driver does not take fares. Here a couple use the machine hoping the driver will wait for them.

Opening Day
10 May 2000 was the opening day of public services on the New Addington route. Here the very first car, carrying VIPs and other special guests, is seen approaching the Gravel Hill stop. It carries a floral decoration at the front. This was in mid-morning: a few minutes later, the first car available to the general public followed.
