Bromley London Borough Council

Celebrations after 'spooky' horse racing tip

The racing tip was part of a time capsule discovered underneath a statue in Crystal Palace Park, south London.

A member of the team that unearthed the 62-year-old letter put £20 on what came to be the winning horse.

The coins and letter were in a time capsule found beneath a bust of Sir Joseph Paxton in Crystal Palace Park.

Developer Galliard Homes bought the 6.74-acre Stockwell Close site for £13.5m last year.

Bromley is London's largest borough and has been under Tory control for almost all of its existence.

Residents claim the flat road is encouraging drivers to reach dangerous speeds - the local council disagrees.

Enforcement officers for car park operator APCOA say workers elsewhere in south London earn more.

Traffic wardens in Bromley are paid £12.21 an hour, less than the London Living Wage of £13.85.

Flames ripped through the building, which was under refurbishment, on Tuesday morning.
