Apart from the David Johnson and Doris Pullen books. Would anyone know if there have been any other publications on the history of Penge?

I'm not an authority on the subject but I know of a few books not authored by Pullen or Johnson.

BRIEF NOTES ON THE HISTORY OF THE HAMLET OF PENGE WITH ANERLEY (1927) Sidney Hodgson

The Book of Penge , Anerley & Crystal Palace . The Community , Past Present and Future (2000) P Abbott & the Anerley Writers Circle

THE MAKING OF A LONDON SUBURB: Capital Comes to Penge (2007) Martin Spence

I always try and buy my books from the excellent Kirkdale Bookshop which stocks both new and used books. If they cannot help try Abebooks the best place on the web for used books.

Most books about The Crystal Palace cover Penge well.
Is their anything specific you are looking for ?
