My Penge
We hope you will find this a fun and interesting website - we want it to be a mirror on Penge to show some of the good things about this place and of course some of the not so good things. At the moment we show it just the way it is - check out the shop page where we have listed by photographs as many of the shops in the Penge area as we possibly could.
Local elections soon in Penge and Cator and will this make a difference? Labour ae battling it out with the Liberal Democrate and the Conservatives appear to be nowhere.

From things of interest like the history of Penge - Did you know that Crystal Palace Hill was actually called Penge Hill. It has been in the record books since pre-Norman times, and in addition to 2 main line railways had a canal go through it.
Things of interest on this site are a Penge Chat Room to a place where you can sell your goods, or even your car, house or flat on line - in fact sell anything!. We hope you will discover something about Penge you never realised before, a new shop, something to look out for, a fun activity like a Penge pub crawl (though most here know about that!).
We have found Penge to have some impressive attributes particularly with the business like attitude of some people and what they aspire to achieve. We want to join this and create a website that people from all over the 'world' may check out and learn that Penge is a place of diversity and interest and but just another South London High Street.
This site will be looking at everything there is in Penge, a town in South London, some say south east London as it is SE20 but wherever you think it is. Some think it is typical of south and east London shops generally dirty and full of 99p shops and youths in hoodies. To most its home so shouldn't we take pride in it?
We are going to let you decide for yourself, and show you plenty of pictures and provide loads of comments about Penge. Activities through the year lke the 'Penge Festival' and other activities there are a lot of people that cre about there local community, and seek to inprove where they can.
I remember the Two Ronnies joking about Penge on their TV show, as have others. There have been celebrities living in Penge and the surrounding areas.
We are looking to contribute to improving the image of perception of Penge, and making it become like Peckham a place for tourists to see a great flavour of South London.
This is My Penge.
