Anerley is a district in the south east of London in the London Borough of Bromley. It is west of Bromley and it is 7 miles south south-east of Charing Cross. It’s the previous site of the Crystal Palace. Anerley has not been its own independent entity, but just a general district. Just before the closure and relocation of the Crystal Palace to Penge Place at the top of Sydenham Hill, Anerley was an empty part of Penge Common that didn’t develop till the nineteenth century. In 1827, a Scottish silk manufacturer, William Sanderson, purchased land on the former Penge Common, and built the very first home in the area. He named it ‘Anerly’, which is a Scottish word for ‘solitary’ or ‘only’, and the road then became referred to as Anerley Road along with the vicinity. There are a lot of transport links in Anerley, which includes 9 bus routes, two A roads, two rail stations and one London Overground station and aTram station at Birkbeck station. Transport for London had proposed the extension of Tramlink services from Harrington Road tram stop to the bus station on Crystal Palace Parade by way of Anerley Road, but Mayor Boris Johnson cancelled the £170m extension in November 2008. Notable persons that lived in Anerley consist of Thomas Crapper, who promoted the flush toilet, in his retirement; Walter de la Mare, well-known poet and author of ghost stories; and James Leavey, award-winning Punch magazine columnist.
