Croydon
The London Borough of Croydon is a London borough in south London, England and is part of Outer London. It covers an area of 33.6 square miles and is the largest London borough by population, being the home of roughly 376040 inhabitants. It's the southernmost borough of London. At its centre is the historic town of Croydon from which the borough got its name. Croydon is mentioned within the Domesday Book, and from a tiny market town has expanded into one of the most populous areas on the fringe of London. Croydon is the civic centre of the borough.
Formed in 1965 from the Coulsdon and Purley Urban District and the County Borough of Croydon, the local authority Croydon London Borough Council, is now part of the local government association for Greater London, London Councils. The economic strength of Croydon dates back mostly to Croydon Airport which was a significant element in the improvement of Croydon as a business centre. Since 2003 Croydon has been certified as a Fairtrade borough by the Fairtrade Foundation.
Premier League football club Crystal Palace F.C. play at Selhurst Park in South Norwood, a stadium they have been based in since 1924. Other landmarks within the borough consist of Shirley Windmill, one of the few surviving large windmills in Greater London built during the 1850s, and the BRIT School, a creative arts institute run by the BRIT Trust which has produced artists like Adele, Amy Winehouse and Leona Lewis.
