Selsdon Gazette

This is the Home page for the local community magazine, The Selsdon Gazette.

This is published by the Selsdon Residents’ Association with independent editorial and advertising control. It has been in print for nearly 70 years and is run solely by volunteers and funded entirely through advertising income. There are eleven issues per year (no issue in August).

Over 4,000 copies are printed every month and distributed to homes and businesses in the Selsdon area and by post to a limited number of subscribers. 

 The links below take you to specific sections.
 From late 2018 the full Gazette has been archived here and issues are accessible from the bottom of this page in reverse order with the most recent uppermost. 

Selsdon Through the Eyes of  War Baby - is a memoire from Des Donohoe who was born here near the start of WW2.

The Rowsell Chronicles - is a series of articles by Raymond Rowsell published in the Gazette in 2005 to mark the 60th anniversary of the end of WW2.

Glimpses of Old Selsdon is an archive of Ted Frith's pieces which tell the history of our area.

Nature Notes is an archive of Ted Forsyth's seasonal notes on natural history 

Roundabout is an archive of Carousel's witty commentary on local current affairs.

The versions of each of these published in the Gazette are here enhanced by the addition of photographs or other images and links. If you have any to contribute I would love to hear from you. 

History of the Gazette does what it says on the tin and comprises a number of pieces from Ted Frith detailing the Gazette's origins and development.
