Here's a few more @Derek1952 taken from the Chris Mansfield site that that Charlton4ever posted above. (Available to buy from there but he says he's happy to share for non commercial use)
Does anyone have photos of General Gordon Square when it had shops/houses around it. My Grandparents grew up on Shooters Hill. My childhood was full of stories from Woolwich, Charlton and Shooters Hill.
On the far left is the pub Fortune of war? which was opposite the post office and sorting office. On the right by the white car is the turning into Wellington St.

There was a sports shop on that side of the road, in the photo, i'm trying to remember the name of it.
Apart from the sports shop there was a coffee shop, opticians and cafe bar on the corner. I'm fairly sure there was an alley way leading down to General Gordon square too.

Alley way was continuation of Love Lane, i believe.
I lived in one of those tower blocks when I was 3-4, remember I got a bike for my 4th birthday and riding it with stabilisers at the green at the bottom. I've no idea which block, we moved to Cardwell Estate the next year.

Yes there was - just up from the Fortune of War. An old boy owned it and it was a tiny shop, and I remember buying a set of darts in there which must have been in around 75-76.

I seem to recall a Kentish Independent office nearby but maybe mixing locations.
