Location

[edit]

The structure is sited on Park Lane, not Wellesley Road as it is south of the junction with George St. where the road name changes. (Via London A-Z) Eagleash (talk) 13:54, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chocolate shop

[edit]

I am trying to remember the name of the independent chocolate shop in St Georges Walk. It closed circa 1990. Periglio (talk) 00:40, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Demolished

[edit]

St George's Walk has pretty much been demolished. Only the facade of the High Street end remains. The Fairfeild Halls end has gone as well. https://www.mylondon.news/news/south-london-news/businesses-left-croydons-st-georges-16200855 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D6maLu6XkAAy268.jpg Nozzer71 (talk) 11:01, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Panzer71: As of two weeks ago, the Fairfield / Park Lane end was still standing and those businesses still in existence were continuing to trade (albeit in rather a reduced manner). The My London article you linked to (although 2 years old now) does say one half has been demolished meaning the western or High St. end and the image is of what remains of that end as you can see the older architecture in the background. It seems possible that work on the eastern (Fairfield) side may be connected with the redevelopment of the Nestle Tower. However, I shall be passing fairly close by in the next few days and will check on any developments. Eagleash (talk) 22:08, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Update: Eastern end still standing and circumstances not much changed, as of June 2021. Eagleash (talk) 11:36, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
