The Railway Telegraph is close to Thornton Heath station, and is popular with football fans visiting Selhurst Park. It also has a sports TV. The pub retains two distinct bars, although the large L-shaped bar is the result of combining the former public and saloon bars.

Historic Interest

Built 1876. Leased to Young & Bainbridge 1877. Freehold acquired by Young & Co in 1901.
