The Robin Hood on the corner of Croydon Road and Elmer's End Road in Anerley is first recorded in 1861. It seems to have closed fairly recently. There is now an Aldi at the site.
Pub Wiki lists information on publicans and residents for the years 1861-1922. The address of the pub has been variously given as Oak Grove (1867) and 101 Croydon Road. In 1896 it is listed as 'Robin Hood hotel'[1] Template:PnItemQry
