Houses in Pollards Hill North
Pollards Hill occupies the highest point in Norbury and on a clear day the view stretches to Windsor Castle. It was originally part of the Great North Wood and the name 'Pollard' derives from this connection. The road layout of Pollards Hill was shown on maps of 1868 with two avenues of trees. Pollards Hill had been left as an open space as the surrounding estate developed and it was given to Croydon Council in 1913 by Sir Frederick Ederidge. This is Pollards Hill North and this appeared on the 1868 map. The attractive houses right near the summit of the hill are rather more recent. The open space is off to the right. Unusually, there are no parked cars to spoil the photograph.
