Station Approach Road, Coulsdon
It was originally the station approach road for Coulsdon North, long since demolished. This street had the distinction of being the very last street in the Borough of Croydon to be lit by gas. Electric street lighting replaced the gas in 1983.

Station Approach Road, Coulsdon North
At the time of the photograph, this was the last remaining gas-lit street in the Borough of Croydon: the reason was that it was still lighted by the railway-owned gas supply to the neighbouring Coulsdon North station: presumably the local authority were happy to continue payment for the supply rather than change the lighting over to electricity.

Station Approach Road, Coulsdon
This street had the distinction of being the very last street in the Borough of Croydon to be lit by gas, a situation which persisted until September 1983 and arose because the street lighting was linked to the gas lighting at Coulsdon North station, (closed 30 September 1983).

Taken from the top of St Andrews Church and from here you can really see that Coulsdon library was built in the shape of an open book.
