Old Bexley still has the appearance of a village and is due north of Joydens Wood Nature Reserve, and Bexley, which merges northwards into Bexleyheath where the administrative offices of the London Borough of Bexley are located. Traditional landmarks in Bexley include the Church of Saint Mary's which gives its name to the electoral ward containing the village.
