Lower Addiscombe Road first appears as a path across Croydon Common on a map dating to 1768.

Lower Addiscombe Road was renamed many time. In 1801, it had become a formal road as Addiscombe Road. After this it was called St James Road, probably from 1829 when St James Church was built to the west. From 1865 it was referred to as St James Road East and finally as Lower Addiscombe Road from 1869.

The land of the Leslie Lodge estate was sold piecemeal. The land fronting Lower Addiscombe Road sold in the 1850s and developed into shops.
