    Croydon is a corruption of Crog Dene, which meant something like 'valley of the crocuses'.

    Oh how they knew.

    Crecganford is the site of big old punchup in 457AD between the Jutes and Britons.
    Outside Nando's on a Friday night after the Bear and Ragged Staff tipped out.

    Plumstead as you can see from map is right next to river then. If you visit the church you can see the rings on the wall that were used to moor boats.
    The Bear and Ragged Staff has rings down in the celar. These were for chaining up Aussie bound crims. Probably from the Deptford area.
