Woolwich wander

Falconwood to North Woolwich, London. Mon 28 May 2018


 

 Shrewsbury Tumulus - a Bronze Age monument. There were seven in the area a hundred years ago, all but this

 built on in the 1930s. It is a scheduled ancient monument.

 Mayplace Lane was probably the continuation of the ancient road to a ferry at Woolwich
     
 At points you get a good view - or would if the air was clear. The green roofs are on the lifts added to the Barnfield council estate
     
 H J Webb Ltd Grocers and Provision Merchands on Herbert Road - now a Turkish barber

 Mayplace Lane merges with Herbert Rd here, though the road on the edge of the Barnfield estate shares its name
