It was valued at £20. Today, Bexley is virtually the last village on the edge of London and maintains a distinct feel and character. This walk explores how Bexley village has developed over Bexley High Street (1910) more than a thousand years. © Bexley Local Studies & Archive Centre We will discover evidence in the buildings and streets of how the village looked in Saxon and medieval times. We will find out how and why it changed in the Victorian and post-war eras. We will learn about the lives of villagers over the centuries and what they have done for a living. And will we also discover how Bexley’s position on the banks of the River Cray has brought both advantages and disadvantages.

Welcome to Bexley Bexley railway station Old Bexley is an ancient settlement in southeast London. The village is situated on a crossing point of the River Cray, 13 miles from the centre of the capital. This walk charts the village’s development, from its inclusion in the Domesday survey 1,000 years ago to its absorption into Greater London in 1965. We will look at the village in Tudor, medieval and Victorian times, as well as the twentieth century. We will see how Bexley has adapted to physical and economic factors through the centuries. We will look at how transport links have Bexley village in snow (2010) © Raymond Molony influenced the village’s development. This walk was created by Raymond Molony, a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and long- standing resident of the village. Raymond: “Welcome to Bexley! I have chosen this walk because it allows you to experience the exciting development of a small village over the centuries. There is a lot to experience, including an ancient church with a boulder grave, a former code station reputed to be haunted and a wildlife conservation area on a floodplain.” “Although we’ll be looking at how the village has developed and changed through time, we won’t necessarily do this in chronological order because of the location of different buildings. I hope you enjoy your walk around this last The Freemantle Hall, Bexley High Street © Laura Shawyer village on the edge of London.” Directions 1 Remain outside Bexley railway station. 10 2. The train of change Bexley railway station Two hundred years ago, Bexley was a small village in the countryside. Today it is a suburb in the outer London Borough of Bexley, having been absorbed by urban sprawl. Only the Green Belt restrictions limit its further expansion into the countryside. This is why you can think of it as the last village in London. We are going to start exploring the village by considering the critical role of the railway, which changed the nature of Bexley for ever. During the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, you reached the village over a rutted road infested with marauding highwaymen. The railway line between Bexley and Crayford Access to Bexley was no easy matter. © Rory Walsh The railway line was built in 1866 and connected this isolated village with the rest of London. No longer would this be a landscape dominated by country estates with a few large houses. Victorian villas could now be built near the station to allow the new middle class to commute on a daily basis to their jobs in the capital. The local population expanded from just 1,441 inhabitants in 1801 to 10,605 by 1891. During the 1920s and 1930s the villages around Bexley linked up due to the expansion of suburban housing. Now you A map of Bexley (1897) showing the railway line can reach Charing Cross in central London and the growing number of residential plots in the village © Bexley Local Studies & Archive Centre in 50 minutes. Today the railway carries the commuters employed in the service economy of the twenty-first century. Directions 2 Walk down Station Approach. Stop at the junction with the High Street. 11 3. Before the railway Corner of Station Approach and High Street Though we started by thinking about how the railway dramatically changed Bexley from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, the village High Street is much older. This road has existed for centuries. In fact, what you see today is a medieval road pattern. So let’s go back to the days before the railway and think about what the village would have looked like... It is 1801. Our monarch is King George III. The roadway is unpaved. The building immediately on your right (now an estate agents and florists) The former poor house, established in 1787 © Rory Walsh is the poor house. It was established in 1787 and the parish is trying to look after those 40 inmates who have fallen on hard times. These facilities are administered by the local parish of St Mary’s. To the left and on the opposite side of the High Street, just set back from the road, are the almshouses paid for by the former governor of Madras, a Mr Styleman. They provide some housing for the poor and elderly. The well-off inhabitants of the village are now living in larger brick houses, built according to the latest Georgian style. Styleman’s almshouses © Raymond Molony / Rory Walsh 12 Most of the villagers derive their income from farming, working in the mills or acting as servants to the many large country houses in the area. There are also some dirty industries such as leather tanning in Tan Yard Lane beside the poor house. There are skilled craftsman too, like John Dann. He is a carpenter. By 1824 he is receiving the grand sum of £15.76 per year from the church for his work. But he supplements this income with a further £6.60 for burial work at St Mary’s. Workers – whether skilled or unskilled – receive no paid leave.

  • Bexley Growth Strategy
    www.bexley.gov.uk Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Leader’s Foreword Following two years of detailed technical work and consultation, I am delighted to present the Bexley Growth Strategy that sets out how we plan to ensure our borough thrives and grows in a sustainable way. For centuries, Bexley riverside has been a place of enterprise and endeavour, from iron working and ship fitting to silk printing, quarrying and heavy engineering. People have come to live and work in the borough for generations, taking advantage of its riverside locations, bustling town and village centres and pleasant neighbourhoods as well as good links to London and Kent, major airports, the Channel rail tunnel and ports. Today Bexley remains a popular place to put down roots and for businesses to start and grow. We have a wealth of quality housing and employment land where large and small businesses alike are investing for the future. We also have a variety of historic buildings, neighbourhoods and open spaces that provide an important link to our proud heritage and are a rich resource. We have great schools and two world-class performing arts colleges plus exciting plans for a new Place and Making Institute in Thamesmead that will transform the skills training for everyone involved in literally building our future. History tells us that change is inevitable and we are ready to respond and adapt to meet new opportunities. London is facing unprecedented growth and Bexley needs to play its part in helping the capital continue to thrive. But we can only do that if we plan carefully and ensure we attract the right kind of quality investment supported by the funding of key infrastructure by central government, the Mayor of London and other public bodies.

  • Bexley Bird Report 2016
    Bexley Bird Report 2016 Kingfisher –Crossness – Donna Zimmer Compiled by Ralph Todd June 2017 Bexley Bird Report 2016 Introduction This is, I believe, is the very first annual Bexley Bird Report, it replaces a half yearly report previously produced for the RSPB Bexley Group Newsletter/web-site and Bexley Wildlife web- site. I shall be interested in any feedback to try and measure how useful, informative or welcome it is. I suspect readers will be surprised to read that 153 different species turned up across the Borough during the 12 months of 2016. What is equally impressive is that the species reports are based on just over 13,000 individual records provided by nearly 80 different individuals. Whilst every endeavour has been made to authenticate the records they have not been subject to the rigorous analysis they would by the London Bird Club (LBC) as would normally be the case prior to publication in the annual London Bird Report (LBR). This report has also been produced in advance of the final data being available from LBC as this is not available until mid-summer the following year – it is inevitable therefore that some records might be missing. I am, however, confident no extra species would be added. The purpose of the report is four-fold:- To highlight the extraordinary range of species that reside, breed, pass through/over or make temporary stops in the Borough To hopefully stimulate a greater interest not only in the birds but also the places in which they are found. Bexley Borough has a wide range of open spaces covering a great variety of habitat types.

  • Investigations and Excavations During the Year
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society INVESTIGATIONS AND EXCAVATIONS DURING THE YEAR I. REPORTS ON EXCAVATIONS SUPPORTED BY THE SOCIETY Interim Report by Mr. P. J. Tester, F.S.A., on, the Excavations at Boxley Abbey. By the courtesy of our member, Sir John Best-Shaw, the Kent Archmological Society has conducted excavations during 1971 at Boxley Abbey for the purpose of determining the monastic layout. Five members of the Excavations Committee have taken an active part in the investigation and assistance has been given by the Archaeo- logical Society of Sir Joseph Williamson's Mathematical School, the Lower Medway Archwological Research Group and the Maidstone Area Archmological Group. A preliminary site-plan was prepared by Mr. J. E. L. Caiger who also conducted a resistivity survey. Excavation has consisted mainly of cross-trenching to locate buried footings, and by this means considerable additions have been made to our knowledge of the plan. In general, the arrangement as shown in the late F. C. Elliston- Erwood's plan in Arch. Cant., lxvi (1953) has been proved to be substantially correct, with several qualifications. The church was of the same form and dimensions as he showed except that the transepts were longer (north-south) and contained three eastern chapels each instead of two. Some walls discovered in a small excavation by Mr. B. J. Wilson in 1959 and 1966 are now seen to be related to the night-stair in the south-west corner of the south transept.
