Regency Records
( Feb 28, 2016) As far as I know there has only ever been one record shop on Reeves Corner, so I guess this must be it. I remember buying some records from there but can’t remember what they were. It was a pleasant, bright shop with quite a good selection, considering it wasn’t very big.

( May 6, 2016) Phone book search results for ‘Regency Records’ at 3 Lower Church Street, Croydon, showed it was open from 1968 to 1973. It was located in what was commonly known as ‘Reeves Corner’ - named after the nearby furniture shop, which eventually took over the whole site. It burned down in the riots on 8/8/2011.
