Woolwich Arsenal Area, SE18
Following a £15m redevelopment programme completed in 2011, the former Woolwich Equitable Building Society offices - constructed in 1935 - now forms the backdrop to a "green" General Gordon Square in central Woolwich. This Grade II-listed building is now occupied by South London College. General Charles Gordon of Khartoum (1833-85) was born in Woolwich and educated at the nearby Royal Military Academy. A 'big screen', installed to allow individuals to watch the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games can be seen temporarily obscuring the Woolwich Arsenal Station corner of New Street.

Remodelled junction
As part of the remodelling of General Gordon Square in 2010/11, the clockwise one-way system around it was revised so that the northern side was pedestrianised and through traffic routed round the east and south sides. This junction at the south-east corner of the square was turned from a mini-roundabout into a traffic-light controlled junction.

Shops on Woolwich New Road
A row of shops on the east side of the road at the junction with Thomas Street. The nearest three are a dry cleaner (possibly gone out of business as it was shut on a Saturday afternoon), newsagent and hairdresser.
