Remains of heathland on Winn's Common

Winn's Common is the eastern part of Plumstead Common. Although this was once heathland there is now no heather to be found although plants such as gorse are still to be seen. However, names such as Heath Villas and Heathfield Terrace are reminders of what was once here. There are also tremendous views across the Thames basin.
