About this product

Product Information

For centuries a small but important market town, in open countryside and well separated from London, Croydon was the principal town in East Surrey ... not least because its markets and fairs were granted by the archbishops of Canterbury, who were the lords of the manor. Their a near Londona residence was there and by the 17th century their manor had become Croydon Palace. Enclosure of the commons paved the way for development and the town began to expand. Railways, made the place an ideal residential area for Londoners. This remarkable book tells the entire story of what is now the sixth largest commercial centre in the country.

    Excellent in every respect; much better than originally described and pictured. The shipping was relatively fast, and the wrapping/packaging of the book was both robust and thoughtful, something that most decidedly makes a large difference. This book is a great value as are all works by the amazing Roy Strong. The plates and text are simply extraordinary. Thank you so much, devizescollectables, for a perfect transaction.

    Very good packaging for a film poster sent with care and postage price also very good. This is an original film poster for the 1960 classic hit Kanoon which shall look fantastic, framed and hanging on one of my walls. A wonderful addition to my collection. Item just as described, good value and I'll keep checking this online shop for new items. Great seller, fast delivery and I give 5 Gold Stars in every category, thank you and see you again soon!
