Monks Orchard & Eden Park by Ian Muir & Pat Manning
Populated from the late Bronze Age, the area of Monks Orchard & Eden park was favoured for its gentle wooded hills and numerous north-flowing rivers. Then in the late 1700s, its proximity to London began to draw rich landowners keen to establish their mansions here to the Manors of Beckenham and Foxgrove to the north and the estates of Burrell and Langley to the south. The beginning of the 20th century saw the demise of the large houses and the spread of our present housing estates over former park and farm lands, producing the kind of environment where families have chosen to stay. This hard cover book of 160 pages is permanently out of print and only a few copies remain in stock.
