Central Parade, New Addington
This is indeed pretty much the centre of New Addington with shops on one side, and various civic buildings on the other.
New Addington was originally developed in the 1930s before being enlarged by Croydon Corporation as a quasi-new town. Pevsner describes it as a "classic example in the 1950s of prairie planning, or the pointless over-provision of open space, so that everything is too far apart."
