North Woolwich

Woolwich

Although North Woolwich is on the Essex side of the Thames the area was administered with the rest of Woolwich after the aftermath of the 1066 conquest and so was once part of Kent. The name North Woolwich became part of Essex after the opening of the now closed railway station with that name in 1847. In 1888 it became part of the County of London and in 1965 became part of Greater London.

Only found to date in a list of licensees from a local paper of 1866. However, further research tells me that the hotel closed in the early 2000's and unfortunately was demolished in 2003.
