Upper and Lower Terraces, Crystal Palace Park SE19 - Bromley

Terraces designed by Sir Joseph Paxton and situated to the east of the site of the Crystal Palace (re-erected here in 1852-4 and burnt down in 1936), at the top of Crystal Palace Park. The terraces are in a very poor condition and suffering from erosion, with fenced-off balustrading. Major further conservation works are planned as part of the wider strategic Regeneration Plan for the park with funding from a range of sources. Planning Permission has been granted and commencement of works is scheduled for 2025. The park as a whole is now in the custodianship of the Crystal Palace Park Trust.
