SUMMARY:Lesnes Abbey (Bexley) and Green Chain Walk to Woolwich
DESCRIPTION:Lesnes Abbey Wood is a park and woodland set in a sea of housing estates in Abbey Wood in the London Borough of Bexley\, south east London. This is somewhere I had never previously visited.\n \nIts attractions boast the following:\nHistoric abbey ruins and monks gardens.\nA viewpoint of the City from South-east London.\nWoodlands with wild flowers (and lots of bluebells yesterday).\nFossil hunting opportunities.\nAn arboretum.\nA kiosk that sells hot drinks and hot and cold sandwiches if you do not want to bring a packed lunch.\nToilets! \nAfter lunch and during the afternoon there will be a pleasant walk from Lesnes Abbey to Woolwich (under 2 hours) along the Green Chain Walk across:\nBostall Heath\nBostall Woods\nGreat Bartlett’s Woods\nWinn Common\nPlumstead Common (where there is a cafe and pub)\,\nthen into central Woolwich for a cafe and/or a pub before returning home. \nThose who would prefer not to join this walk can return via Abbey Wood rail station to London Bridge or take the Elizabeth line to Farringdon station\, and rail to East Croydon. \nThe going is generally flat and along good paths through woodland but there are a couple of short steep hills along the route from Lesnes Park to Woolwich which will require care\, and a couple of busy local roads to cross. \nFootwear: If its dry then good walking shoes are fine. If its wet I suggest boots. \n\nWhere to meet\nWe meet at East Croydon at 9.35 am to catch the 9.51(pl 2) train to London Bridge and from there the 10.18 train to Abbey Wood station that arrives at 10.47.\nLesnes Abbey is a 10 minute walk from Abbey Wood station. \nTrains come back from Woolwich Arsenal rail station to London Bridge and then to East Croydon\, or you can catch the Elizabeth Line to Farringdon from Woolwich station and then rail to East Croydon. \nThe current weather forecast is sunny with a slight (less than 30%) chance of rain. \nI look forward to seeing you!\nAndy\n07751182930 \n  \nGuidance on Walking\, Cycling and Camping – Croydon Outdoor Pursuits & Social Events Club
