Barnehurst
Barnehurst is a town and district in South East London within the London Borough of Bexley. It's north east of Bexleyheath, and is 13 miles east south-east of Charing Cross. It's separated from North Bexleyheath by the A220 Erith Road.
The town was established following the sale of land in 1881 to construct the Bexleyheath loop line in between Lewisham and Dartford. Its name stems from the name of the railway station, which was named after Colonel Barne, who owned a nearby house and was vice-chairman of the railway company. Nowadays, the railway station runs trains in between London Charing Cross, London Victoria or London Cannon Street, via Lewisham and Eltham to the west and Dartford railway station to the east. There are 12 trains per hour in the course of the week; on Sundays, there are four trains each hour. The railway station was openedto stimulate the creation of houses. The Barnehurst Estate was constructed in 1926 which housed a lot of individuals.
As well as the railway station, Barnehurst is served by five buses, 1 of which goes to the popular Bluewater Shopping Centre. There are limited buying or leisure opportunities within the town, so individuals often go to surrounding locations working with public transport links or the primary roads.
Barnehurst is residence to the non-league football club Phoenix Sports FC, which plays at Phoenimx Sports Ground.
