Foxgrove Road

Categories: Property

Road in Beckenham, Kent. David Bowie lived at number 24 in Flat 1 from March to October 1969. The photograph is of Seychelle Court which is now number 24. We can find no mention of Bowie living in a block with this name, and as the building looks relatively modern, we can only assume that this is not his actual residence.
