Living in Charlton

Charlton is a pretty part of South East London, sandwiched between Greenwich and Woolwich, and lies just south of the River Thames.

With the borough of Greenwich hosting a number of events during the 2012 Olympic Games, including gymnastics at the 'O2', and equestrian events in Greenwich Royal Park, it is thought that house prices in Charlton are set to increase.

Part of the area, between the Thames and Woolwich Road, is largely given over to industrial and commercial use. The area south of Woolwich Road is almost entirely residential, set on a hill leading up to Charlton Village at the top.

Generally the area has a mixture of council housing estates and private suburban houses. South of Woolwich Road there are some attractive Victorian houses - Charlton Lane, Pound Park Road and Fairfield Grove being good examples.

In Charlton Village itself there are some attractive streets. Going west towards Blackheath, on either side of Charlton Road there are streets of Victorian houses. Around Canberra Road the properties are more 1930s family houses.

There are many blocks of council flats to the west of Charlton Village, around Charlton Church Lane and Charlton House.

Transport

Regular services operate from Charlton Railway Station in to London Bridge, and on to Charing Cross and Cannon Street.

The DLR can be accessed from Greenwich Station and Cutty Sark Station, which are both just two miles from Charlton.

There are a number of bus routes along Woolwich Road which run towards Greenwich and Central London, and also through Charlton Village in the direction of Blackheath.

By road, Charlton lies to the east of the southern approach to the Blackwall Tunnel.

History and culture

Charlton has its own stately home, Charlton House, which is open to the public and is a fine example of Jacobean architecture. The building is used as a public library and community centre.

There are a couple of good parks in the area. Maryon Wilson Park (which has an animal park) is set on a hill east of Charlton Lane, and provides good views of the area. There is also Charlton Park, just behind Charlton House.

Blackheath Sports Club is situated along Charlton Road, and Charlton Athletic Football Club is based at The Valley, just off Charlton Lane.

The Thames Path passes through the area, providing some pleasant walking along the riverside to Greenwich, and further out to Woolwich.
