David Bowie lived in Beckenham from 1969 to 1974.  During this time he wrote and recorded many of his classic songs, as well as creating his Ziggy Stardust character and album.  He co-founded the Arts Lab at the Three Tuns pub (now Zizzi’s restaurant), performing there numerous times.  In 1969 a free festival was held at Croydon Recreation Ground with Bowie performing on the bandstand there, alongside many other local musicians.
