Woolwich

united kingdom

Woolwich occupies a strategic Thames-side position in southeast London, combining its military heritage with modern regeneration around the former Royal Arsenal. The A206 provides the main east-west route through the area, connecting to the A2 for Kent and the M25 orbital. Popular local routes include the short drive to Greenwich (6km) and longer journeys toward Canterbury via the A2. The Royal Artillery Barracks features the world's longest continuous brick building facade at 329 metres.
