The ridge and the historic oak tree known as The Vicars Oak (now replaced by the crossroads at the junction of the A212 Church Road & A214 Westow Hill) were used to mark parish boundaries. This has led to the Crystal Palace area straddling the boundaries of five London Boroughs; Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham. The area also straddles at least three postcodes (SE19, SE20, SE26). The ancient boundary between Surrey and Kent is located in the area and from 1889 to 1965 the area lay on the south eastern boundary of the County of London. It was part of Kent and Surrey until 1889 and then was part of Kent, London and Surrey between 1889-1965.

For centuries it was occupied by the Great North Wood, an extensive area of natural oak forest that formed a wilderness close to the southern edge of the ever-expanding city of London. Local legend has it that Sir Francis Drake's ship, the Golden Hind, had its timbers cut from trees in this area. The forest was a popular area for Londoners' recreation right up to the 19th century, when it began to be built over. It was also a haunt of Gypsies, with many local street names and pubs recording the link. The area still retains large amounts of woodland for an urban location.

Sydenham Hill is one of the highest locations in London; 109 metres (357 feet) above sea level[citation needed]; and the size of the palace and prominence of the site made it easy to identify from much of London. This leads to the residential area around the building becoming known as Crystal Palace instead of Sydenham Hill. The palace was destroyed by fire on 30 November 1936 and the site of the building and its grounds are now known as Crystal Palace Park and include an olympic sized swimming pool. is the 334th day of the year (335th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ... 1936 (MCMXXXVI) was a leap year starting on Wednesday (link will take you to calendar). ...

The park

The surrounding park was a Victorian pleasure ground used for many cultural, patriotic and sporting events. The sculptor Waterhouse Hawkins erected the first lifesized models of the (then) newly-discovered dinosaurs and other extinct animals in the park. The grounds once housed a football ground, which hosted the FA Cup final from 1895 to 1914 as well as London County Cricket Club games till they folded. This site is now the National Sports Centre, built 1964.

The extensive grounds were used in pre-war days for motorcycle and, after the 1950s, for motorcar racing; this was known as the Crystal Palace circuit. Parts of the track layout remain in 2005 as access roads. The track itself fell into disuse after 1972, although it has been digitally recreated in the Grand Prix Legends racing simulation.

The park remains a major London public park. The park was maintained by the LCC , and later the GLC but with the abolition of this body in 1986 control of the park was given to the London Borough of Bromley. The park is entirely within the London Borough of Bromley, but its proximity to other boroughs left many Crystal Palace residents of surrounding boroughs feeling disenfranchised.

A long-fought-over local issue is whether to build on the open space which was the location of the original Crystal Palace building or to leave it as parkland as the GLC had done. This would be within the London Borough of Bromley, but affect residents in neighbouring boroughs and the access to the sports centre. It would also affect the skyline view across the whole of London.

The park is situated along the highest section of the London clay ridge known at its ends as Sydenham Hill and Beulah Hill or the Clay Gate Ridge. This ridge offers spectacular views northward to central London, east to the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge and Greenwich, southward to Croydon and the North Downs.
