The Crystal Palace Subway, with its extraordinary architectural qualities and rich heritage, was part of the world famous Crystal Palace which gave the name to the area on top of Sydenham Hill.
The Crystal Palace was destroyed by fire in 1936 and the subway is one of the last surviving elements, it is Grade II listed although there is currently no public access due to health and safety concerns.
The Crystal Palace Subway, witness to a by-gone era, has captured the imagination of the local community who would like to see it made safe and available again as a community asset for the benefit of all.
More coming soon along with a library of your memories and resources.
