I might extend this near the end by heading west from Coney Hall to finish at Addington Vilage (via Wickham Court, across Fox Hill and through Spring Park). There's a pub in Addington Village and the tram runs from there to East / West Croydon.

There were about 20 or so at the station, and I noticed that three joined afterwards. So, guestimate at 23. We could get CCTV evidence to determine the final number.
Always an enjoyable walk, on a lovely mild winter day. Just need to get my neighbour Sadiq to enforce the 20 mph limit on the roads which are quite dangerous to cross at times.
Quite a lot of us inside, and outside the Greyhound for lunch. My lunch and beer was excellent, although there were complaints about the coffee, which the landlady noted the good and not so good comments.
Several, or more people went on to Addiscombe to extend the walk by a couple of miles.
Four of us enjoyed a beer and cider in the Real Ale Way, opposite the Railway station (geddit).
Note: the train and the station do not have loos, so the costa and the pub do have community access, if you follow the sign.
