The original settlement of Thornton Heath was clustered around the Pond area on the London Road, but when the railway station came in 1862, the focus of development shifted to what is now Thornton Heath High Street. This latter area was called, for a while, 'New Thornton Heath'.
The older Thornton Heath, part of the Manor of Norbury, had been open heath common land for centuries. Its main claim to fame was the useful pond, for horses and cattle, and the gallows, which stood on the site. The Enclosure Act of 1799 turned it into privately-owned farmland. The Enclosure also enabled owners to sell their land for development, and within a few years there was a fair cluster of buildings around the pond area and development (mostly quite substantial houses) was spreading up the eastern side of the London Road on the way to Croydon.
As already mentioned, 'New Thornton Heath' was created by the railway. Before 1862, the area had a few farmhouses, one or two villas and, an important local industry, market-gardening. These were soon engulfed by new streets. By 1900 there was very little open land left in Thornton Heath, new or old.
Croydon Workhouse was situated in Queen's Road, after it moved there from Duppas Hill in 1865. In 1930 the Workhouse became Queen's Road Hospital, and the remaining section is now a Grade II Listed Building. Opposite is Queen's Road Cemetery, opened in 1861 when the neighbouring churchyards were getting full up. Council Tax Band: Holding Deposit: £0.00
