Riddlesdown Road leading up to Riddlesdown
Riddlesdown is an area of chalk grassland and scrub on the side of the Caterham Valley with fine views north towards Croydon. It is owned by the City of London as one of several commons they own in this area. Although it is called Riddlesdown Road it can be clearly seen that the road here is little more than a path.

Drinking fountain on Riddlesdown
This seems an odd spot to find a drinking fountain, on the grass between Riddlesdown Road and Coombes Wood. Nevertheless it appears to be in working order. The plaque shows that it was provided by the Metropolitan Drinking Fountain and Cattle Trough Association and no doubt its presence here is a consequence of the land being owned and managed by the City of London Corporation.
