Always used to bother me that the football grounds weren't actually in Crystal Palace. It was bloody miles from Selhurst Park to real thing!
(actually - now I think about it why was the football ground called Selhurst Park? It was in Thornton Heath!)
It's actually in Selhurst. Though nowadays with the (sub)urban sprawled it's hard to delineate where exactly Norwood, Selhurst and the 'Heath meet or overlap.
I went to Selhurst last season, I was thinking of visit the Crystal Palace, but didn't have time. Rather wish I had now.
Agreed. The football club was named after this building.
