The Croydon Park Hotel is located along Georges River Road, in the inner west suburb of Croydon Park. It is typical of the style of classic old pub that you see out in the suburbs. While many of these types of pubs have closed, been redeveloped or replaced by larger venues over the years, it's good to see that many have survived too.

I agree with you, I like to see the old buildings, pubs, whatever, maintained and used! They're frequently much more interesting to visit than the "made in box, overnight" architecture that you see so much of today. Terrific shot, Jim, as always! Hope your week is off to a great start!

Interesting old style pub - but as you say there are not many of them left.
I like the design of the second floor.
Must be decades since last I found meself inside a Pub. Thank you for the memories. May time and life continue to treat this place kind.
Please have a good Tuesday.

Great shot of a beautiful old pub...happy some are able to keep them going!
Very cool!
I too like old buildings which are well maintained. Your photo is very nice.
this looks just like England - in fact I used to live near croydon in South London!!
I agree with Sylvia ! When I read Croydon I thought it was the Croydon near London which I know very well, lol !
Don't forget if you come across a Royal that I am taking contributions on my Royal blog.
Gattina, we have a lot of suburbs named after places in the UK because many early settlers wanted a reminder of their old home.
