Croydon: How it is - November 2023

This is my fourth annual November visit to Croydon to film it and capture the town "how it is". It is intended to be neutral and all I ask is that it is viewed as such.

Thanks to my mate Graham for coming along on the journey and supporting what I do.

I am a local historian and have made many films in the Croydon area so I do pick out certain historical elements (notably the architecture). Croydon is far removed from what it once was and I hope that this trip down memory lane will help you to remember some of the better times spent here.

The retail shopping experience has changed globally, what we see in Croydon may be seen in many more towns around the world. It is not clear at this point to see what the future may hold.
