The proposed site for the church and shops eventually became the site of the Langley Park Schools.

Consisting mainly of sizable detached or semi-detached housing it remains ones of Beckenham's most exclusive and unspoilt areas.

The Park Langley develop-ment, of which this road was a part, began in 1908 when H & J Taylor, a Lewisham building firm, bought a sizeable part of the ancient Langley Park Estate from the Goodhart family.

Originally envisaged as a self contained garden city complete with circular shopping centre, church and dance hall building, it was interrupted by World War I causing all but the housing to be abandoned.

Some parts to the north of Brabourne Rise remained unfinished into the fifties.
