The name Anerly is a Scottish word meaning solitary or only, but from 1860 onwards the area started to become developed with grand Victorian houses. The town hall was built in 1878 and enlarged in 1911. In 1900 the area became part of the Penge urban district of Kent. In 1965 Anerley became part of the London Borough of Bromley.

Refurbished and re-opened in June 2013 the premises closed again at the end of March 2018. It was sold to the London Property Group Limited in January 2019, so guess it'll no longer be a public house.

 

The Era 13 March 1864.
