Training in Orpington

Chickens, CrossFit and a strong combat scene.

For a full health club, Orpington has Bannatyne Health Club. CrossFit Orpington and Fordes Gym, formerly Keddles, cover class-based conditioning and lifting. Combat sports are well represented, with the Orpington & District Amateur Boxing Club, Harris Judo Club and SEF Karate, and Bromley Valley Gymnastics Centre shares an address with the CrossFit box. Orpington Football Club completes the list.

Priory Gardens holds the ponds where the River Cray rises, and Goddington Park has pitches and tennis. Orpington Road Runners use High Elms Country Park for their Sunday runs, so you won't be the only one out on the North Downs trails at the weekend.
