The original settlement of Thornton Heath was clustered around the Pond area on the London Road, but when the railway station came in 1862, the focus of development shifted to what is now Thornton Heath High Street. This latter area was called, for a while, 'New Thornton Heath'.
The older Thornton Heath, part of the Manor of Norbury, had been open heath common land for centuries. Its main claim to fame was the useful pond, for horses and cattle, and the gallows, which stood on the site. The Enclosure Act of 1799 turned it into privately-owned farmland. The Enclosure also enabled owners to sell their land for development, and within a few years there was a fair cluster of buildings around the pond area and development (mostly quite substantial houses) was spreading up the eastern side of the London Road on the way to Croydon.
As already mentioned, 'New Thornton Heath' was created by the railway. Before 1862, the area had a few farmhouses, one or two villas and, an important local industry, market-gardening. These were soon engulfed by new streets. By 1900 there was very little open land left in Thornton Heath, new or old.
Croydon Workhouse was situated in Queen's Road, after it moved there from Duppas Hill in 1865. In 1930 the Workhouse became Queen's Road Hospital, and the remaining section is now a Grade II Listed Building. Opposite is Queen's Road Cemetery, opened in 1861 when the neighbouring churchyards were getting full up.
Mayday Hospital started life in 1881 as the infirmary of the Workhouse, and was renamed Mayday in 1930. The hospital takes its name from the road, not vice versa.
Another Grade II listed building is St. Alban's Church, Grange Road. Built in 1889, it is described as a red-brick perpendicular style with stone dressing.
At the junction of the High Street and Parchmore Road, on a site previously called Walker's Green, stands the Clocktower, which was built in 1900, financed partly by public subscription.
In earlier times, Croydon was well-known for its charcoal-burners or colliers, and Colliers Water Lane commemorates this connection with that trade. Another industry connected with the area until recently was clock and bell-making. The world-famous firm of Gillett & Johnston was based in Union Road from 1844 to 1957, and its clock tower was a well-known landmark in the area until it was demolished in 1997.
