Former St Paul's school, Plumstead
Originally a Catholic secondary school, more recently an Academy. The Academy has now moved to a new site about 1.5km away Image and I am unsure what this old building is used for now. The high-stacked temporary buildings used for a while when the academy first expanded on this site Image have now gone.

Steps down from Winns Common
Plumstead Common was purchased for the people in 1877. Before that, the parish council had grazing rights and free access, even though the land was owned by Queens College, Oxford. From 1871 the College had allowed the Army access and it was largely turned into a military training ground. This led to a storm of protest and a procession to the Common took place. Their leader was temporarily imprisoned and further protest took place until an Act of Parliament authorised purchase of the Common by the Metropolitan Board of Works. The eastern part of Plumstead Common is known as Winns Common and this part of the Common is characterised by steep roads leading down towards lower Plumstead and also steep slopes to the east and south. These steps lead down to King's Highway.

Flower bed near main entrance, Woolwich Old Cemetery
Woolwich Cemetery is in two parts, west and east, divided by Rockliffe Gardens. This is the Old Cemetery to the west, founded in 1856 by the Woolwich Burial Board. They laid out the 12-acre site which was formerly part of Plumstead Common. This is at the lowest part of the cemetery with the gate leading out to King's Highway beyond. The trees on the far side of King's Highway are on the slope of Winn's Common, which is the eastern part of Plumstead Common.
