Belvedere
Belvedere is a town in south east London, England within the London Borough of Bexley. It is located south east of Thamesmead and is found around 12 miles (19 km) southeast of Charing Cross. Belvedere was in Kent, and in terms of the postal system, remains so. It formed a part of the Municipal Borough of Erith prior to 1965 and improvement work occurred prior to the Second World War, with substantial reconstruction work following the Blitz. Despite this, Upper Belvedere as well as the Village still retains a significant amount of its Victorian and Edwardian appeal and character. Upper Belvedere is home to a church and a number of Victorian and Edwardian brick villas. It includes several regular pubs, restaurants and retail outlets. These include The Eardley Arms on Woolwich Road, The Vic on Victoria Street, The Royal Standard in the centre of the village plus the Fox in Belvedere village. Upper Belvedere also boasts a sizeable park and a library that was under threat of being closed as a result of the government's cuts. Luckily this danger has been averted as a result in the efforts of the local community. A new 'Splash Park', which opened in 2005, was a welcomed addition to the village, having been created on the location of an old Victorian paddling pool. The splash park preserves parts of the historically significant paddling pool architecture. Between 1898 and 1961, Callender's Cable Works, at the Erith Works, was patron to Callender's Cableworks Band, an amateur brass band formed of personnel of the company. The band was a successful broadcaster on BBC Radio in the 1920s and 1930s.
