Plumstead is a historic area in South East London, situated within the Royal Borough of Greenwich and located to the east of Woolwich and just south of the River Thames. The area is known for its distinctive Victorian and Edwardian housing, ample green spaces, and a strong sense of community. The presence of Plumstead Common at its heart, along with its proximity to the wide-open marshlands by the Thames, gives Plumstead a unique urban character balanced by natural beauty.
