Enjoyed looking through those photos, Shooters.
Thank you.
Used to work for the Woolwich Equitable there in the early 70s.
51 bus from Welling to Woolwich every day.
Haven't been back for more than 30 years.
Bet I wouldn't recognise the place now.

A quite a dramatic change happening at Abbey Wood.

Grew up in Abbey Wood, so the old one is the one I knew well. Would think I'd landed on another planet or fifty years in the future if I saw the new one in real life.0

Have a look at this site . Just found a 1963 aerial shot showing my Mum, Dad, Sister in the back garden 1963! Takes a while to navigate but some amazing old and very old pictures ! Aerial Photo Explorer – Over 400,000 aerial photos in Historic England's digitised collections | Historic England0

This site is centred on the Royal Arsenal but has a lot about the surrounding areasThis site is gradually digitising OS maps (including the largest scale) - 1950s and earlier (although anything that was military / war office tends to be shown as blank space) - you can move around / fade in and out of current map in the same place, and swap between different eras of map -
