Belvedere
Belvedere is a town in south east London, England inside the London Borough of Bexley. It is located south east of Thamesmead and is located roughly 12 miles (19 km) southeast of Charing Cross. Belvedere was in Kent, and in terms of the postal system, remains so. It formed part of the Municipal Borough of Erith ahead of 1965 and development work took place prior to the Second World War, with considerable renovation following the Blitz. Regardless of this, Upper Belvedere and the Village still contains much of its Victorian and Edwardian appeal and character. Upper Belvedere is home to a church and many Victorian and Edwardian brick villas. It has several conventional pubs, restaurants and retail outlets. These consist of The Eardley Arms on Woolwich Road, The Vic on Victoria Street, The Royal Standard in the centre of the village and also the Fox in Belvedere village. Upper Belvedere is also home to a large sized park and a library that was close to getting shut due to local government cuts. Luckily closure threats have been stopped as a result from the efforts in the local neighbourhood. A brand new 'Splash Park', which opened in 2005, was a welcome addition for the village, having been developed on the site of an old Victorian paddling pool. The splash park retains some of the original paddling pool buildings. Between 1898 and 1961, Callender's Cable Works, at the Erith Works, was patron to Callender's Cableworks Band, an amateur brass band made up of employees from the business. The band was a popular broadcaster on BBC Radio in the 1920s and 1930s.
