Very interesting historical building. Guided tour carried out by very knowledgeable retired history teacher who taught at Old Palace school.

Review of Open Building - Old Palace

Very pleased we went on the tour. The guide was very knowledgable, friendly and thoughtful.  Amazing building on our doorstep.  

The debate was very interesting although I would have prefered if it was more about the History of Croydon than the recent plans for development from Westfield Shopping Centre. It felt more like advertising than a History debate. The PA system was terrible, the chairs uncomfortable but the venue was beautiful to see. The Lady from British Museum had very little chance to speak and hers was the part I was most interested in.

Review of Croydon\'s Evolution

A very interesting range of well researched topics were discussed making it an interesting and enjoyable evening in very historic surroundings.

An interesting discussion/debate. The presenter's enthusiasm for Croydon came over well but I wish that he had spoken slower as it was difficult to understand what he was saying. The evolution of Croydon was told by five experts from its beginnings to the present and stretching into the future. I enjoyed the evening but there should have been time left at the end for questions from the audience.

Good topic and panel. Interesting subject.

Some minor gripes:
Poor microphones and not enough debate. A bit one sided in favour of development due to the participants (from Westfield, whitgift and council). It needed a realist amongst them as an antidote to gung ho development! But in the whole, very interesting.

Very interesting event but would have been better with more audience participation.

Excellent. What could have been a dry and boring subject was brought to life by the author's research, comprehensive knowledge and witty sense of humour. His informative talk has led me  to order his latest book on the subject of the Green Belt. I found his antidotes about his bringing up in New Addington in the 70s interesting. 



Review of Outskirts: Living on the Edge of the Greenbelt

Excellent talk, a nice blend of family history, planning history and very amusing as well.A very engaging speaker.
