On: The Crystal Palace

[andybak]

Always used to bother me that the football grounds weren't actually in Crystal Palace. It was bloody miles from Selhurst Park to real thing!

(actually - now I think about it why was the football ground called Selhurst Park? It was in Thornton Heath!)

It's actually in Selhurst. Though nowadays with the (sub)urban sprawled it's hard to delineate where exactly Norwood, Selhurst and the 'Heath meet or overlap.
