Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Beckenham is a town in the London Borough of Bromley, England. It is located 8.4 miles south east of Charing Cross and 1.75 miles west of Bromley town. Until the coming of the railway in 1857, Beckenham was a small village in almost completely rural surroundings: once a family of entrepreneurs began the building of villas here, its population soared from 2000 to 26,000 during 1850-1900 and throughout the rest of the century. The current population is nearly 82,000. Today it is very much in London suburbia, although some of the grand houses of the early days remain.
