The Crown is a Shepherd Neame pub which is attractively situated overlooking Chislehurst Common. It is less than 10 minutes walk from Chislehurst Station but the walk is sharply uphill. The walk can be avoided by catching the 162 (Beckenham Junction to Eltham) or 269 (Bromley North to Bexleyheath) bus. Both routes can be caught in Central Bromley and also pass near to Chislehurst station. The local R7 route from Chelsfield to Chislehurst also passes the pub. In all cases, alight at Camden Park Road. Bromley CAMRA members who are not on the committee are always welcome to attend committee meetings. Non-committee members planning to attend a meeting may request the Secretary (secretary@bromley.camra.org.uk) to prepare and print a pack of relevant committee papers to be made available at the meeting.Share this:PrintFacebookTwitter

Many readers of the diary will be aware of the large number of micropubs which have opened in the Bexley CAMRA area over the last three years or so. We have noticed that four of them are situated close to the high-frequency 51 bus route (which runs from Orpington to Woolwich), so we have used that fact to plan this social.If you live in Central Bromley or in the west of the borough, your best plan to get to the first pub will be to get bus 269 (another high-frequency route) from Bromley North via Bickley and Chislehurst to Sidcup and alight before the traffic lights at the first crossroads in Sidcup – the stop is named “Carlton Road”. A walk of no more than ten minutes is needed from there.The schedule is as follows:-Noon Hopper’s Hut, 1 Invicta Parade, Sidcup High St. DA14 6ER1.15pm Hackney Carriage, 165 Station Rd, [.....]
