Due to the area's ongoing development, Woolwich has grown in popularity. With excellent transport links, there is high demand from commuters in Central London.
Historically, Woolwich was an important military and naval area. Many of the weapons and machinery used by the British army and navy originated from Woolwich Arsenal. The army vacated the area in 1994, and Woolwich was redeveloped, creating stunning places to live and work.

A quick hop onto the Woolwich ferry and Excel and City Airport are nearby, giving access to many UK and European cities.
