Earliest known mention of#ForestHill in 1794, from an advert in The Times. The area is described as a 'singularly beautiful situation' near#Sydenham Common. From a slide presentation given by Steve Grindlay to the@FHSoc in 2008, which inspires me still. fhhistory.blogspot.com https://t.co/G43vHlIa0x
