Beckenham is a district within the London Borough of Bromley. It borders Beckenham Place Park and Bellingham within the London Borough of Lewisham. It’s 13.5 km south east of Charing Cross. Beckenham had been a tiny village in the borough in Kent with most land serving as private parkland until the railway was built in 1857. Right after that, an entrepreneurial family began constructing villas which brought on the population to elevate massively from just 2,000 to 26,000 between 1850 and 1900. Since 1900, housing has been built at a steadier pace, which means the populace is starting to even out. In the 2011 census, the populace stood at 56,668. The district is served by 3 key railway stations as well as six more within the post town. There’s also two Croydon Tramlink stations to the west of the district. Transport for London buses serve the Beckenham area to link it with other towns including Bromley, Catford, Croydon and Crystal Palace. Beckenham is identified for its numerous church buildings. St George’s Church is the main parish church and stands at the centre of the district. It extends back to around 1100, but was majorly rebuilt at the end of the 1800s. It contains a 13th century lynch gate that is believed to be one of the oldest of its sort in England.
