Northeastern Suburb

Woodside - CR0
Woodside has its own small high street just to the west of the leafy Woodside Green, which is overlooked by a number of larger Victorian houses converted into flats. Norwood Junction station, which is a few minutes walk from the busy Portland Road, is the first stop from East Croydon and serves mainline London stations with a regular service.

Woolwich - SE18
Sprawling suburb with a wide variety of accommodation. Good access to the City on a fast frequent rail service. Easy access to the Southeast. Plenty of open space by the river or in the ancient woodlands of Shooters Hill.
