Ladygrove, the patch of woodland at CR0 9LU, is what remains of Lady Grove, a small wood on 19th-century maps of Selsdon. When Wates started its Forestdale estate it set the remaining wood aside as a children's playground, which a Wates subsidiary, Fernwood Estates, presented to the council in 1977.
Curved streets and cul-de-sacs begun by Wates
Most of Forestdale was built between the late 1960s and the mid 1970s on open ground that had been smallholdings. Croydon's character appraisal groups it with Selsdon Vale, between Selsdon Park Road and Court Wood Lane: houses on distinctive curved streets, mostly semi-detached or in small terraces, many of them dormer bungalows, in red brick with timber cladding, with open frontages for parking and small enclosed back gardens. The appraisal adds that Forestdale and Selsdon Vale are harder to navigate than most of the area, with less choice of routes.
There are flats too, round the shops at the junction of Featherbed Lane and Selsdon Park Road. In the census output area by those shops (E00005302), 70.2% of the 131 households lived in a purpose-built flat in 2021, and 39.3% of the 135 households rented privately.

Moving out of a Forestdale flat or house
Across Selsdon Vale and Forestdale ward, 16.4% of the 4,250 households rented privately in 2021, and 76.7% owned their home. The homes are a mix: 33.4% terraced houses, 25.5% purpose-built flats, 25.2% semis and 14.9% detached. Where a fair share of homes are let, tenancies end through the year, and the oven is one of the things the check-out inventory looks at. The guide to end of tenancy oven cleaning covers deposits.

Finding the right close
Croydon's list of 20 controlled parking zones has no Forestdale zone. Houses here were built with open frontages for parking. The team needs somewhere to park; if the bays by your flat are for residents only, tell us when you book. Give us the close and the main road it comes off.
Forestdale oven cleaning questions
I hand back the keys to my flat next week. Can the oven be done first?
Yes, if there is a slot before the check-out. Book with the date in mind; free cancellation up to 24 hours before helps if it moves.
Can the letting agent book it and pay?
Yes. The invoice is addressed to the agency, and photos for the checkout file can be taken on request.
Is Forestdale part of Addington?
Historically it was in Addington parish. The old village, round St Mary's church, is on the Addington page.
Do you come on Saturdays?
Yes. We work every day, and weekends are charged at the weekday price.

What customers tell us
Brilliant clean, my oven looks like brand new. A 5 star clean.
Nice hardworking lads that always do a good job. We used them for our old flat when moving out and for the new one now, both jobs were done very professionally. My wife is very impressed with the results and would recommend them to friends and family.
I would certainly recommend this service, very efficient and good value for money. The young man did a great job and even cleaned the kitchen floor. Thank you.
