Riddlesdown
Riddlesdown is a place in the London Borough of Croydon, one mile east from the centre of Purley. The name applies to the residential district and to the green space maintained by the City of London Corporation which is also known as Riddlesdown Common. ==History== There is evidence of human activity in the area going back at least to neolithic times. Neolithic tools such as scrapes and flakes, and Bronze Age celts have been discovered there.〔 〕 The "Riddle" part of the name is thought to come from the Middle English ''ridde leah'', meaning "cleared woodland". The name has been referred to variously over time as ''Ridelesdowne'' (1331), ''Redele'' (1338), ''North Ridle'' (1422), ''Riddleys'', ''North Riddeley'' (1461) and ''Riddles Down'' (1765).〔
