Pub history

Coombe Lodge

This area of Croydon has retained much of its rural character and many of its older grand houses, one of which was Coombe Lodge. The grade-II-listed building, originally part of the Coombe Estate, is ‘probably mid 18th century’, with a large 19th-century conservatory. The grand house, previously Coombe Gate House or Coombe Green House, is first listed as Coombe Lodge in the 1851 Post Office Directory.
