The Bishop's Palace was the official residence of the Bishops of Rochester. The present building dates from 1775, although there have been manor houses on the site since the 10C. The estate was acquired by Victorian coal merchant Coles Child who undertook numerous alterations and additions designed possibly by Norman Shaw. The Park contains St Blaise's Well, fernery, Ice House and the former moat

A walk around the streets that the young Herbert George Wells knew when he was growing up and wrote about in his autobiography. You will get a flavour of Bromley in its Victorian heyday - all in the words of the author of the 'Time Machine'

Ernest Newton, Berner & son, 1898

A Victorian Church set in a wooded Churchyard, with a vibrant and striking set of Murals around the altar and the Choir. Beautiful Stained Glass. Has indoor toilet facilities. A good quality well used organ in good condition, and excellent acoustics.
