Forestdale London Map

About Forestdale

Forestdale, a suburban expanse within the Croydon district, breathes with a quiet character. It lies 4.2 km north-north-east of Warlingham (from Warlingham: bearing 13°T, OS grid TQ 364 626), and is situated north of Farleigh village. Here, the suburban streets unfurl with a gentle, almost considered, arrangement, as if the very light filtering through the mature trees dictates the lines of the homes. The broad avenues suggest a more recent ambition than the ancient villages it borders, yet a sense of groundedness prevails, a feeling of lives lived with a certain steady grace. The air often carries a subtle fragrance, a blend of well-tended gardens and the distant, damp scent of earth from the surrounding countryside. Forestdale itself, though a creature of the 20th century, seems to absorb the quietude of its older neighbours.
