Bellegrove Road
Beyond Shooter's Hill we come to Welling, which with
Bexley Heath EXtends for the next two miles along the Dover Road. Here the
latter is too narrow for traffic requirements. It is being considerably widened
in places, and unsightly rows of mean houses have lately been pulled down and
replaced with new blocks of shops. The removal of the tramways in 1935 in
favour of the more up-to-date trolley buses has further eased the traffic
congestion at Bexley Heath. T
In the early 1930s the Bellegrove Park Building late was
developed to the configuration of Bellegrove
Park, a small country seat on the southern side of the Road.
