Ordnance Survey Licence number 100017661. BECKENHAM COPERS COPE & KANGLEY BRIDGE Character The introduction of the railway in mid-Victorian times saw Beckenham develop from a small village into a town on the edge of suburbia. The majority of dwellings in the area are Victorian with some 1940’s and 50’s flats and houses. On the whole houses tend to have fair sized gardens; however, where there are smaller dwellings and flatted developments there is a lack of available off-street parking. During the later part of the 20th century a significant number of Victorian villas were converted or replaced by modern blocks of flats or housing. Ten conservation areas have been established to help preserve and enhance the appearance of the area reflecting the historic character of the area.

  • Core Strategy Vision and Objectives
    1. Introduction Your chance to help shape the future of Bromley We would like you to help us develop the long-term planning strategy for the London Borough of Bromley. This strategy needs to show roughly where any new development should go and, how much development there should be, over the next 20 years. We are starting with what is known as the “Core Strategy” - the top-level document where we set the general direction for the future of the borough - but once this is prepared we will produce other documents with policies to guide the detail of any development. So, is this the “Core Strategy”? No, this is just the first step towards a Core Strategy. This document presents a wide range of information about the Borough and its places and suggests some of the key issues for the future. We are asking everyone with an interest in Bromley to tell us what they think about the issues we have identified – are they the right issues? Are there any more issues that our planning strategy needs to consider? Once we have agreed on the main issues, it’s time to look at the ways of tackling them – again, we’ll be asking for everyone to get involved by telling us what they think and whether anything has been missed. After this we’ll be able to produce a draft Core Strategy which will contain policies that can be used to guide development – this is the document that will be submitted to the Government for checking. Overall, this process will take about two years.

  • The Owl Prowl Continues!
    The Owl Prowl Continues! Report of Pilot Survey A tawny owl survey was carried out this autumn in the London Borough of Bromley under the leadership of Bromley Biodiversity Partnership, in particular by Bill Whitaker of the OFC. 59 records were submitted by 33 people from many parts of the borough. Tawny owls were recorded in about 17 areas: High Elms & the Cudham Valley, Darrick Wood area, Marvels & Elmstead Woods, between Elmstead Wood and Chislehurst & Walden Road Recreation Ground, between Chislehurst & Walden Road Recreation Ground & Chislehurst Golf Course, Chislehurst Golf Course itself, Old Hill/Lubbock Road area, Chislehurst, Sundridge Park, Kemnal Road, Chislehurst, the St Pauls Cray Road area, Hawkwood Estate/Petts Wood, Scadbury Park, Hayes, near Bromley South, Kelsey Park, Beckenham, Crofton Woods and south of Biggin Hill. The records clearly show recording effort, with no records for several areas where owls are very likely to be present such as West Wickham and Keston Commons and hardly any records for areas of open countryside to the south and east of the borough where fewer people live. The almost complete lack of records from these areas and the peripheral wards of LBB to the east, south east, south and south west are also likely to be due in part to the fact that we were unable to communicate effectively with residents in these areas before the survey commenced. Within the larger areas where recordings were submitted there are probably several tawny owl territories, for example within High Elms Country Park and along the Cudham Valley. In well populated areas, for example within Chislehurst, there is likely to be some duplication of records, but the large number of tawny owl records for Chislehurst and its surroundings (Chislehurst Common, Chislehurst Golf Course, Petts Wood, Scadbury Park, Elmstead and Marvels Wood, Sundridge Park and Chislehurst & Walden Road Recreation Ground, together with gardens between), may also reflect the importance of good connectivity between areas rich in biodiversity within an urban area.
