  Step 1: This is the first leg of the Wandle Trail, following the River Wandle in South London. The walk begins at the East Croydon railway station.

  Step 4: Look out for the pavement monsters on your way! 😱👻🤪

  Step 5: And any public art or murals you see, too!

• Step 6: On the corner is a plaque dedicated to John Whitgift, the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1596. More than 400 years later, a charity in his name continues to support access to education and community services for people in Croydon.
