Area summary
SE18 covers Woolwich (the principal area), Plumstead, Shooters Hill, Woolwich Common, parts of Charlton Hornfair and Kidbrooke Park edges. The Royal Arsenal regeneration (Berkeley Group's redevelopment of the former Royal Arsenal munitions factory, which closed in 1994) has delivered substantial new housing along the riverfront over the 2000s and 2010s. Woolwich was a Royal Arsenal town for over 300 years and retains substantial Georgian and Victorian military stock around the Royal Artillery Barracks and the Royal Arsenal. The Woolwich Elizabeth Line station opened in May 2022, dramatically improving commuter access (Canary Wharf 9 minutes, Bond Street 33 minutes).
Woolwich Arsenal, Plumstead, Woolwich (Elizabeth Line) and Shooters Hill (Woolwich Dockyard) stations serve the outcode.
