North Woolwich Woolwich
Although North Woolwich is on the Essex side of the Thames the area was administered with the rest of Woolwich after the aftermath of the 1066 conquest and so was once part of Kent. The name North Woolwich became part of Essex after the opening of the now closed railway station with that name in 1847. In 1888 it became part of the County of London and in 1965 became part of Greater London.
The above photo shows the "Three Crowns," allegedly a gay pub. The police station is opposite and I gather that there were often fights in the pub which the police were able to quickly attend to!
Project 2014 has been started to try and identify all the pubs that are and have ever been open in Kent. I have just started to map out the pubs that exist or existed in Woolwich, but need local knowledge and photographs, old and current if you have any. As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will be shown here. Thanks for your co-operation. Every email is answered and all information referenced to the supplier. This page will be updated as soon as further information is found.
