Former Gipsy Tavern, Gipsy Road
The food lies rotting, the sports go unwatched and the garden is a wilderness. This particular pub may not have been much of a loss (I don't know, I never visited it), but there is something melancholic about every entry in the increasingly long catalogue of extinct pubs. I think this one went some time in 2011.

Norwood Park (15)
Large oaks on the left of the path which descends south-west towards the all-weather football pitches and, just beyond, Elder Road. A council sign has the following details:
"The name of the park is a reminder that this high ground was once completely cloaked with trees and was part of the ‘Great North Wood’ which covered over 1,400 acres of the old county of Surrey. Over time the North Wood was gradually lost to housing, fields and roads, and by the end of the C18th it had gone completely in Lambeth. Norwood Park was officially opened to the public in 1911, and contains a splendid mix of trees, a wildlife area, playground, games court and padding pool.”
