Warlingham - that will be the local asylum, then. Used to be a mental institution, then a drug rehab centre and now it's housing, though they've kept the clock tower.
Warlingham is about 2 miles from my ancestral gaff, it's where we went to the butcher and the baker (alas, no candle stick maker) and where my Dad is buried. But I won't find any ancestors in the records as Mum and Dad were born in Kent and Stoke Newington.
