About

Crofton sits in the London Borough of Bromley as a mainly residential suburb with a mix of interwar and later housing arranged around short commercial streets. The area is served by compact parades of shops, a handful of schools, places of worship and community facilities that serve local daily needs. Narrow lanes and suburban roads connect clusters of semi‑detached homes and terraces, and small parks and open squares break the housing so the neighbourhood feels parcelled into distinct blocks rather than one long high street.

To the north of the housing the lowland woodland known as Crofton Woods provides a clear change of pace, with well‑used footpaths, a network of rides and a stand of hornbeam coppice that marks older management of the trees. The woods include veteran oak pollards and small wetlands where birds and invertebrates concentrate in spring and summer, and they form the main green space for walkers and cyclists living in the area. Local councils manage the paths and access so residents can reach the trees and clearings from several residential entrances.
