Orpington is a city and area in South East London, England, in the London Borough of Bromley. It is 13.4 miles (21.6 km) south-east of Charing Cross. On the south-east fringes of the Greater London Construction Zone, it is south of St Marys Cray, west of Ramsden, north of Goddington and Green Street Green, and east of Crofton and Broom Hill.

Orpington is covered by a postcode region, BR. It is identified by the London Plan as one of 35 core centres within Greater London.

Stone Age tools have been found in a number of areas in Orpington, including Goddington Park, Priory Gardens, Ramsden Estate, and the Poverty End. The earliest recorded reference to Orpington is from 1038, when Eadsey, the Treasurer to King Cnut, granted the lands at “Orpedingetune” to Christ Church, the monastery of Canterbury. All Saints was also built during the Anglo-Saxon period.

On 22 July 1573, Queen Elizabeth I was entertained in the Buck Harte (Orpington Priory) with her horses kept at The Anchor and Hope inn in High Street[citation needed].

Historically, the main commercial center of the area was the neighbouring town of St Marys Cray, not Orpington. St Mary Cray had a regular market, as well as industries (a paper mill and bell-foundry). By contrast, Orpington was a small rural village, with farms of soft fruits, hop fields, and fruit orchards surrounding it. These crops attracted Romani people who worked as travelling harvesters, who set up yearly camps on the local grasslands and worked the chalk pits.

Although these activities largely ended, the borough still provides a regular location for travellers in Star Lane, and historical gatherings are memorialised by the names of local streets, such as Romani Rise. In 1967, Eric Lubbock, then the Liberal MP for Orpington, promoted a private members bill for a permanent Romany site; this led to the 1968 Caravan Sites Act, which placed an obligation on local authorities to provide sites for travellers who live on the premises. In 1971, Orpington hosted an international gathering of the Romani people; this Orpington congress marked the foundation of the International Romani League, a group seeking to gain political representation for the Romani people across Europe.
