Sydenham: Where south east London charm meets historic streets
A very generous review from:

se26 website launched
Brainstorm has supported websites providing news, events and community information since 2000. First as Sydenham Freeserve, then Sydenham Town out of which grew the Sydenham Town Forum which became independent in 2016. We moved to Sydenham.info mimicking the style of STF.
We thought 25th anniversary should bring something new. Hence Sydenham.info became se26 launched as a new domain se26.org.uk on November 14th. It’s being built (and occasionally re-built) page by page.
It’s designed to have a plain minimalists style in contrast with many heavy designs that tire the eye and obscure the information they carry.
Cool retro!
Station Widget
The station departure widget uses the National Rail database used on station platform indicator boards. This is a live feed, it’s what’s happening at Sydenham Station right now.
It is freely available and can embedded in any website or bookmarked on your phone for one click access (faster than the Nat Rail app.
Widgets are currently available for Sydenham, Sydenham Hill & Lower Sydenham stations. There is also a Forest Hill widget on the Forest Hill station website: foresthill.org.uk
