‘Crystal Palace is one of the highest spots in London.’

How often have you heard someone say this ? But is it true? ‘Fraid not.

According to this must-have, just published guide to ten high-level walks in the capital, Crystal Palace isn’t even in the top ten highest places in London. Sydenham Hill, the main road between upper Sydenham and Crystal Palace Parade which runs along the edge of the park is the fifteenth highest road in our city. South Street in Bromley (80m higher than the Parade), followed by Sanderstead Plantation in Croydon both top the list.

The lavishly illustrated book is packed with facts on local points of interest and covers ten walks in London including walks from Brockley to Greenwich, New Cross Gate to Forest Hill and East Croydon to New Addington.
