Location

East of Central London, south of the Thames, below the line of London City Airport lies the 76 acres of land now known as the Royal Arsenal.

Shown in The A - Z as a void of disused land named 'West Thamesmead' on the border of Woolwich Town Centre, the development is easily reached by a number of means.

Gunnery Terrace is a converted warehouse building situated on the corner of Arsenal Way and Duke of Wellington Avenue.

By Road

The A206 Plumstead Road runs adjacent to the Royal Arsenal providing direct links to Canary Wharf and Central London by way of either the Blackwall Tunnel or, the Woolwich Ferry (accessed via Royal Docks to the north) which also grants easy access to the A406 and A13. The A205/208 runs south from Woolwich providing access to the A2 and M25.

By Rail / Tube

The development is approximately 300 metres from Woolwich Arsenal Station. From here high frequency rail services run to London Bridge & Cannon Street in approx. 20 mins and Charing Cross in 30 mins.

Access to City Airport & Canary Wharf is now more easily accessed by way of the recently opened DLR extension at Woolwich Arsenal Station with trains running approx every 7 minutes from 5.30am to 12.30am Monday to Saturday & 7am to 11.30pm on Sunday.

By River

Arguably no better way to travel, Thames Clippers now operate a high speed service from Royal Arsenal Pier to Waterloo, stopping at the O2, Greenwich, Greenland Dock, Canary Wharf, Tower Bridge, London Bridge, Bankside, Blackfriars and Embankment (Charing Cross).

With a commuter service from 6am to 9.20am during the week, a late night service running until 1am (1.30am on Friday & Saturday) and food & drink served on board, this really is a popular and viable alternative to the train.
