Open parking area at Bromley bus garage
Situated opposite the garage on the north side of Lower Gravel Road. It is filled with exotic older vehicles on the occasion of the Garage Open Day. This was held to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the setting up 'Roundabout', a localised bus network with small buses. Instead of being run solely for the operator's convenience (as had been too often the case in the past), Roundabout actively sought to meet local needs with its maroon and grey buses. Although Roundabout ceased in 1995 its legacy lives on. For an example of a Roundabout vehicle see Image
