Woolwich: Number One Street, Royal Arsenal
This is one of the main north-south arteries through the former Royal Arsenal site.
The site's 76 acres were bought by the London Development Agency for £1 from the Ministry of Defence in 1997. In the largest on-site reclamation of soil ever, £48.8 million was spent on decontaminating the area. At its peak during the First World War the Royal Arsenal employed 88,000 people, covered 1,350 acres, and even had its own railway system, with 150 miles of track.
