Barnehurst
Barnehurst is a town and district in South East London inside the London Borough of Bexley. It's north east of Bexleyheath, and is 13 miles east south-east of Charing Cross. It is separated from North Bexleyheath by the A220 Erith Road.
The town was established following the sale of land in 1881 to make the Bexleyheath loop line in between Lewisham and Dartford. Its name comes from the name of the railway station, which was named after Colonel Barne, who owned a nearby home and was vice-chairman of the railway company. Today, the railway station runs trains in between London Charing Cross, London Victoria or London Cannon Street, through Lewisham and Eltham towards the west and Dartford railway station towards the east. There are 12 trains every hour through the week; on Sundays, there are 4 trains per hour. The railway station was openedto encourage the building of houses. The Barnehurst Estate was built in 1926 which housed several people.
Along with the railway station, Barnehurst is served by five buses, 1 of which goes to the popular Bluewater Shopping Centre. There are few shopping or leisure opportunities within the town, so individuals typically go to surrounding places making use of public transport links or the primary roads.
Barnehurst is property for the non-league football club Phoenix Sports FC, which plays at Phoenimx Sports Ground.
