Description: | A view of the Parish Church of St. John in Coulsdon, with a gate and sign post in the foreground and flint cottages to the right, behind the hedgerow. At the end of the First World War Coulsdon was a small, largely rural village. When the Lord of the manor died in 1921 his will stated that the estate should be sold. The former farms were bought by developers and suburban housing was built during the 1920s and 1930s. One of the estates consisted of mock Tudor style houses and so became known as the Tudor Village. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Croydon Museum and Heritage Service | Rights holder: | Croydon Museum and Heritage Service | Subjects: | Environment | Temporal: | 1921 | Source: | Croydon Museum and Heritage Service | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
