Local Information for Blackheath

Its rich history includes battles waged during the reign of Etherlred the Unready and the Battle of Blackheath. During the 17th century, the area was the haunt of highwaymen who targeted stagecoaches making their way from London to Channel ports and north Kent.

The A21 is just a short drive in your minibus rental and provides access to Hastings, Bromley and Orpington. The A20 offers connections with Kent towns, central London and the M25.

Local Information for The Stoneleigh

Close

Stoneleigh is a small area in Surrey situated in the Epsom and Ewell district. The village was developed around the Stoneleigh Railway Station and the Broadway. This area was only developed in the 1930’s and until then was basically farm land and open fields. There is a red brick Anglican Church that was built here at that time. With your car you can explore this lovely place and view the parks that were part of Nonsuch Palace.

This palace was one of the Tudor palaces that Henry the Eighth lived in and was destroyed in the 17th century. Many pieces were sold to be used in other buildings, but the only remains of the banqueting hall are at the British Museum which you can visit with your car. The royal hunting grounds were sold off into farmlands, but some of them remain today as Nonsuch Park. In this park you will find The Mansion House to the west built in the 1800’s.

The Bowling Green Farmhouse and Coldharbour farmhouse were the original farms in this area and the owner John Stone built a house for himself that he called Stoneleigh. This is how the area got its name. Currently there are only 4500 people living in this village which makes it so quaint and friendly to visit with your car.

Local Information for Westminster

Close

This area known as the West End and/or Westminster is an area of central London that is home to many of the city’s largest businesses, major attractions and administrative headquarters. The name has also become synonymous with the theatres in the area of West End, making it the unofficial entertainment district in all of London.

The area of West End has long been favored by the rich and famous as a preferred place of residence because it was typically upwind of the crowded city. Also located near the heart of London’s power center of Westminster, the royal area is where laws are made and upheld for the rest of the United Kingdom.

The area was first developed in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries as a series of palaces, expensive town homes, and elite shopping venues and entertainment houses, but has since grown to include other residents. Her Majesty’s Theatre in Haymarket is a must stop, and is home to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s famous Phantom of the Opera. Parking is almost non-existent unless you have a paid or reserved spot, so you may want to park outside of West End and travel into the city.

Early settlements in the area date back to 1068 when the hamlet had a population of just 110. By 1377 the estimated population had decreased to 101 due to the Black Death Plague. The manor house and the parish church were rebuilt in 1469 by Henry Heydon, a lawyer from Norfolk.

By 1801 the population had increased to 436 as the village became popular with the nobility and landed gentry. In the 1920’s and 1930’s several large houses came up for sale. Some of these were demolished and in their place neat rows of houses were erected. By 1939 there were approximately 20,000 residents in the town.

After the Second World War, West Wickham became a major shopping centre and commercial offices started to appear. You can now find a large selection of shops, pubs and restaurants in both the High Street and Station Road.

West Wickham is served by a train service running from Hayes to Charing Cross and there are currently around 50 miles of cycle paths around West Wickham, linking the town to nearby Bromley

Local Information for Brompton

Close

Located within the London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is the town of Brompton. Take your car to Brompton and have a look around at some of the beautiful sites. One such place not to be missed is the (incorrectly named) Brompton Oratory – its actual name is the Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Situated next to the Victoria and Albert Museum, the church is the second largest Catholic Church in London, after Westminster. Inside are 12 statues of the apostles, dating back to 1644.

The church belongs to and is served by the Congregation of the London Oratory. The other two oratories in the United Kingdom are in Birmingham and Oxford. The Oratorian fathers emphasise the liturgy and celebrate Mass in Latin. Once you have sat through one of the traditional Masses and admired the architecture of the building pop in your car and visit the Brompton Cemetery.

The Cemetery is one of the ‘Magnificent Seven’ – a plan to build seven modern cemeteries around London in a ring, during the mid-1800s. Inner city graveyards (graveyards are traditionally attached to churches) were finding it difficult to cope with an increasing population (of living and, afterwards, the dead) and so new cemeteries were designed and built. The other six are Kensal Green, West Norwood, Highgate, Abney Park, Nunhead and Tower Hamlets. It is said that Beatrix Potter took the names for her characters from the headstones at Brompton Cemetery.

Local Information for Elmers End

Elmers End is a place in the London Borough of Bromley, 11 miles south of Charing Cross. One theory about the name Elmers End is that a famous highwayman, Elmer, was hung at the crossroads. The other, and more likely theory, is that the place got its name because of the many elm trees in the area.

The railway was opened through the town in 1864. The only line still in active service is the line between Hayes and Charing Cross. Trains run every 15 minutes during the day to Cannon Street or Charing Cross. One of the former platforms is now used as the terminus for the Tramlink service to Croydon.

Close to Elmers End railway station is an old sewage farm. The sewage works is thought to be contaminated with heavy metals and is therefore deemed unfit for residential development. The sewage farm has since been converted into South Norwood Country Park, a popular place for cyclists.

The industrial estate that used to be on the south side of the railway has all but closed down and is now the site of a Tesco supermarket. A little way further south there still remains a paint factory.

Drive in your carto the area in central London called Camden Borough and you’ll find a town by the name of Bloomsbury. It was developed by the Russell family in the 1600s and 1700s, became a fashionable area for living in, and became quite well known for its beautiful squares and gardens. Indeed, Southampton Square, now called Bloomsbury Square, was laid out in 1660 and was the first ‘square’ to be called a square, although not being the first square to be built in London.

Other squares located within Bloomsbury are Russell, Bedford, Queen, Gordon, Woburn and Tavistock Square. Until 1997 Bloomsbury was home to the British Museum but it was moved to Somers Town due to space restrictions.

Bloomsbury and its squares are also home to many professional institutions, among them the Great Ormond Street Hospital and the University College Hospital, the British Museum, the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, the British Medical Association, the University of London Library, Senate House and the Foundling Museum.
