i see the Riots as a turning point for Croydon. The scandalous burning of Reeves corner and all that. Either those riots will see Croydon rise from the ashes or they will turn it into another backwater. It may take a decade or two to know the answer.

I've had a look at the map and I think it was where Bad Apple is now (incidentally, that looks like a horrendous place) on Park Street. I've got a feeling it might have burnt down in the end, but that maybe somewhere else I'm thinking about. Edited by boo909 (22 Oct 2017 12.02am)

Yeah The Indoor Market was mid 80s and opposite the gay pub The Croydon. Quite brave to have a gay place in somewhere like Croydon in 1983 ish. Even Brighton was just starting to be pink friendly back then.
