Whitgift Centre

The Whitgift Centre is a large shopping centre in Croydon, London which officially opened in 1970. The name comes from John Whitgift, a former Archbishop of Canterbury. The centre was built on the site of Whitgift Middle School, renamed Trinity School of John Whitgift in 1954, which moved to a new site at Shirley Park in 1965. The first shop to open was Boots on 17 October 1968 and the centre itself was officially opened in October 1970 by the Duchess of Kent. The centre is on three stories - the upper two are for retail and the basement provides vehicle access to any of the retail units with a 1 kilometre network of service roads. It adjoins the major Allders store which has substantial frontage onto the centre.
