Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Orpington is located in London Borough of Bromley and lies to the south east of the Charing Cross. The name was renowned to people in 1032 when Eadsy, the treasurer of King Cnut, donated a land to the Monastery of Christ Church of Canterbury.

    A railway line by this name has also been constructed in the Travelcard Zone 6 in 1868. A general super market is situated in front of Orpington College and a Tesco super market is also under construction. The beautiful places worth visiting are the Art deco tower at Allied Bakery and the Crofton Roman Villa. The pre- Norman Parish Church stands upright and was gifted by the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1173. The Orpington priory built in 1032 is a fantastic example of the medieval hall house. Chelsfield, Petts wood, and Farnborough are a few nearby places for sightseeing.
