I’d never
thought of South Norwood in south east London as a travel destination but I was
intrigued when I saw a group on Twitter called the ‘South Norwood Tourist Board’. An initiative set up by local people, they
have ‘been set up to promote the regeneration of South
Norwood by developing tourism to the area’ and have ‘no funding of any kind’
with the project being ‘quite simply a labour of love’.
I drew the Stanley Halls, the lake and the
library before the crowds arrive.
