Chaldon Way Gardens was given to the Urban District Council by the developer, Fairdean Heights Ltd, who built the surrounding houses during the 1930s. The Company also allowed the Council to collect and use free of charge "such earth, turf, sub-soil, flowers and shrubs as can be removed from the Company's Fairdean Heights Estate" to create the Gardens. The ornamental garden were constructed with lawns, shrub beds and annual bedding displays, and a small shelter at one end of the garden. The shelter can be seen here along with a display of crocuses. Chaldon Way Gardens are in the angle formed by Marlpit Lane and Chaldon Way.

Farthing Downs is a fine chalk grassland, owned and managed by the Corporation of London. From the highest parts there are good views northwards towards London, as well as down into the valley to the west followed by the Brighton Road and main railway line. The London LOOP follows the crest of the Downs, parallel to Ditches Lane, before dropping down to reach Coulsdon. This view looks up the hill along Ditches Lane as it heads to the Downs.

The London LOOP follows the crest of the Downs, parallel to Ditches Lane, before dropping down to reach Coulsdon. This is the view across the entrance where Ditches Lane leads up onto the Downs. On the other side of the road it drops down into one of the steep-sided valleys which run south from Purley, this one followed by Chaldon Way.
