Elmers End is a place in the London Borough of Bromley. It has a large green space which is the centre of a roundabout. Very close to the railway station bearing its name is the old sewage farm. The remains of this industrial site can still be seen. The sewage works is thought to be contaminated with heavy metals and is therefore unfit for building houses.


The sewage farm has been converted into a country park, but many of the locals still know it as the sewage farm.


The old industrial estate which was on the south side of the railway track has mostly closed down. It is now a Tesco superstore. The paint factory which is further south from Tesco still remains.


Elmers End station is a terminus for Tramlink services to Croydon as well as being on the railway between London Charing Cross and Hayes, Bromley.
