Purley Council Offices, Brighton Road
The handsome building just beyond the Fire Station was built to house the offices of the Coulsdon and Purley Urban District Council, a part of Surrey. But sadly that local government unit disappeared in 1967 when it was subsumed into the London Borough of Croydon. This left the building with no real function and it is now awaiting redevelopment as apartments. At least they are not going to pull it down, which would have been a pity as it is one of the best modern buildings in the area.

'Fitness First', Brighton Road, Purley
What now is a run-of-the-mill gymnasium is actually housed in a famous building, for this is, or rather was, the stylish Orchid Ballroom, Purley, very well known from the BBC 'Come Dancing' days. Always with a full 17-piece band, in its heyday it drew clients from all over the south of England.

Moving further north along Brighton Road and looking north we see the properties on the west side of the road. The white building is the Co-op funeral parlour. The furthest tall building on that side is the former UPLands telephone exchange. Grovelands Road joins at this point.
