We shall start by recalling the definition and some basic properties of a convexity space; a topological convexity space (tcs) will then be a convexity space together with an admissible topology, and will be a generalisation of a topological vector space (tvs). After showing that the usual tvs results connecting the linear and topological properties extend to this new setting we then prove a form of the Krein-Milman theorem in a tcs.
