Eynsham Drive, SE2
The Harrow Inn public house is mentioned in a description of the hamlet of Abbey Wood in the late 1860s when it was one of the very few buildings. It is at the junction of Abbey Wood Road with Wilton Road. The A2041 Harrow Manorway flyover across the railway can be seen in the distance on the left. Various on-line pub guides describe the clientele of the pub as local. Demolished in 2009 and now a derelict site.

Eynsham Drive dates from the late 1950s with the construction of the Abbey Wood Estate.

A parade of shops was constructed in 1966 with Abbey Wood Library helping to form a focus for the new estate.
