History
Croydon Parish Church
Addington and Croydon Parishes are both ancient parishes that are listed in the Doomsday book. The main link between them is that they are both burial sites for former Archbishops of Canterbury as both churches were used as places of worship by the Archbishops when they lived nearby at Old Palace and then at Addington Palace.
There are six archbishops buried in the churchyard at Croydon Parish Church and five at Addington. For further information please visit the Croydon Parish Church website.
