Bromley was a rural district in north-west Kent, England from 1894 to 1934. Its area now forms part of the London Borough of Bromley in Greater London. It did not include the main settlement of Bromley; which constituted the Municipal Borough of Bromley. Mottingham formed an exclave of the district.

Chislehurst became an urban district in 1900, followed by Foot's Cray in 1902 (later renamed Sidcup Urban District).

The district was abolished under a County Review Order in 1934, with much of the area becoming the Orpington Urban District, and other parts going to Beckenham, Bromley and Chislehurst and Sidcup.
