IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Irene Road, ORPINGTON, BR6 0HA

Looking towards its junction with Keswick Road with Cyril Road beyond. The footpath is one of a network of footpaths in the Knoll area of Orpington, the routes of which are shown on the 1868 Godfrey edition map of Orpington, which explains why they cut across the current, much more recent, road layout. This one runs from Irene Road to Keswick Road, before continuing to Broomhill Road. It is the same as the one shown in Image, viewed from the opposite end.

This is Irene Road, built off Keswick Road in the second phase of development of the Knoll/Broom Hill area, first appearing on maps in 1930. The footpath to the left of the house is one of a number of such paths in the area that predate its development for housing.

Early 20th century house in Keswick Road. In 2007, Bromley Borough Council considered adding this house to its local list, although this was decided against.
