One of the interesting features that crop up as you cycle around the woods; this informational tree sculpture is near ‘The Clearing’ at a crossroads of trails and hills. The ‘data’ mentions various local or historical events and people and points towards those locations.

Woolwich Royal Arsenal Pier, along the Thames Path. Famous for the circle of Peter Burke sculptures and cannons of various sizes.

Shortly before you get to Erith on the Thames Path is a surprise- a very steep, footbridge. Part of a dredging complex, there’s no cycling signs at the foot but it’s fun to ride. There are a number of uneven, stepped concrete slabs just before the climb so getting a good run up isn’t easy - you either need to shift to a low gear or stand on the pedals and push hard. Legend has it that there’s a troll living underneath.

There were locked gates on the entrance last time I went past.

One of the sights along the Thames Path near Plumstead. Usually to be found with at least one person sitting on top. Several WWII pillboxes, part of the General Headquarters (GHQ) defensive line, can be found along the Thames Path. These pillboxes were designed to slow down a potential German invasion. The Thames Path itself runs alongside the River Thames.

It's a shame that the gates are usually closed - I'd like to look inside. Fabulous woods.

Ancient chalk pit deep in a valley in Abbey Wood; lots of steep hills running either side. Punishing on legs. The end of the pit has a gate which is often closed but it surrounded by paths.

Lovely Boating lake and Danson House to visit.
