- Bromley Common is the area centered at the road of the same name stretching between Masons Hill at the south end of Bromley and Hastings Road, Locksbottom. The area borders on other suburbs of the London Borough of Bromley such as Petts Wood and Orpington. Although mostly used as a vehicular thoroughfare, the surrounding area does boast Chatterton Road, home to an intriguing range of charity shops, Liddon Road, and the newly opened Bishop Justus Church of England (secondary) School. Now awarded Village status, which means that there is village sign complete with a quill, and lots of village lamp posts, some still requiring the pavement to be repaired, also a village notice board, situated outside the Bakery in Chatterton Road, the area still looks as though it has seen better times, due too the close down of useful village shops, such as a hardware shop, butchers, florist, green grocers. How long will the post office remain ? New additions include the new mural, sited on the side of the Co-op, and a newly revamped Whitehall Recreation Ground, complete with flower beds, seating, picnic area, wildlife pond, and refurbished childrens play area. All this is thanks to Bromley Council, Parks Department.
- Bromley Common er et område i Bromley i London. Det ligger langs Bromley Common Road, mellom Masons Hill i Bromley og Hastings Road i Locksbottom. Elven Ravensbourne renner gjennom området, mens Quaggy har en sekundær kilde der. Stedet er sterkt knyttet til crickethistorie. Det blir nevnt i den forbindelse i omtalen av en cricketkamp i 1735 der Kents klubb vant over Londons. En stor folkemengde var samlet for å se kampen, og det var en del uro blant publikum. Noen hester fikk panikk; ryttere ble kastet av og personer i mengden ble tråkket på av hestene. En man skal ha omkommet, og ble båret ut da Frederick, prins av Wales red forbi inngangen. Det ble spilt minst et dusin store kamper på Bromley Common mellom 1735 og 1752, en periode som sammenfaller med at Bromley Cricket Club hadde et av Englands sterkeste lag mens Robert Colchin spilte for dem. Den siste store kampen ble spilt 30. juni 1752, og endte uavgjort mellom Bromley og London.
