Where Lewisham and Lambeth Walk Greets with Bromley on Parade, From Sydenham, Joseph His style and his spirit In the landscape, lakes, foundations; And at this quiet corner ...by John Greatrex |
Crystal Palace Park was the site of South London's Crystal Palace 1854 - 1936 Rebuilt on Sydenham Hill by Sir Joseph Paxton in the park he designed. |
Paxton Primary School is a Lambeth Primary School for boys and girls aged 3 to 11. Because it is a small school, we are able to know each child well and believe this enhances his/her happiness and educational achievement. We enjoy being part of a community where people from many different cultures live side by side and we have developed links with local organisations.
