Aryatara — Early FWBO Community, Purley
Purley, Surrey, England · 1968–1989
Aryatara ('Noble Star'), originally known as Sarum House, was one of the earliest FWBO residential communities, in Purley, south London, connected to the Croydon Buddhist Centre. From Sangharakshita's departure in 1973 until 1980, his entire Order Library was housed here. He visited regularly over two decades and stayed here on his visits to the Croydon sangha.
