Welcome to Selhurst

Selhurst is a small district located in the London Borough of Croydon, in the southern part of Greater London. The area is known for its diverse community and vibrant atmosphere. Selhurst is home to a number of local businesses, shops, and restaurants, making it a popular destination for both residents and visitors. The district is also well-connected to other parts of London, with several bus routes and train stations in the area.

One of the most notable landmarks in Selhurst is Selhurst Park, the home stadium of Crystal Palace Football Club. The stadium has a capacity of over 25,000 and is known for its lively atmosphere on match days. Selhurst Park has been the home of Crystal Palace since 1924 and has undergone several renovations over the years. The stadium is also used for other events, such as concerts and conferences.

Selhurst is also home to several green spaces, including South Norwood Country Park and Grangewood Park. South Norwood Country Park is a large nature reserve that covers over 100 acres and features a lake, woodland, and meadows. The park is a popular destination for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. Grangewood Park is a smaller park that features a playground, sports facilities, and a community garden. Both parks provide a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
