Immerse yourself in the charm as you encounter The Pearly King and Queen of Thornton Heath, adding a touch of regality to these bustling streets. Look up to the skies as an Avro Vulcan B2 soars above, giving a magnificent birthday salute to none other than Barnes Wallace himself.

Journey back to 1902 when Barnes Terrace stood proud amidst London's ever-changing landscape. And let us not forget Justus D. Barnes, immortalized on film by Edison Company in 1903 for his role in "The Great Train Robbery. " it is home to poignant moments etched forever within history's pages. Reflect upon the solemnity surrounding DEATH OF LINCOLN in 1865 as you stand beside Lincoln's death bed lithograph—a reminder that even across oceans, impactful events leave their mark. Finally, gaze upon a portrait capturing the essence of Sir Barnes Wallis—the man whose brilliance knew no bounds—forever inspiring generations with his inventions and unwavering determination. In every corner lies another chapter waiting to be discovered—a tapestry woven with tales from all walks of life—be it Bromley FC football team celebrating victory or ordinary individuals leaving extraordinary legacies.
