[edit] Suggestion

Kate Moss is perhaps one of the most famous people to have come from Addiscombe. Should this not be added to the list of famous residents? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.222.168.9 (talk) 13:26, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Athletes on the brickworks

I am not sure if the following qualifies to go in the article.

The site of the former brickworks lying behind Beckford Road has been redeveloped as housing. The roads have been consistently named after athletes who were in the news at the time - late 1980s, early 1990s. They are:

  • Backley Gardens - Steve Backley
  • Coe Avenue - Sebastian Coe
  • Anthony Road - misleading! This road is much older. The name is just as likely to be that of the developer or one of his family.
