Welling, DA16

Welling is a district in the London Borough of Bexley. It is a suburban development situated between Shooter's Hill and Bexleyheath north of the A2 road and 10.5 miles (16.9 km) east south-east of Charing Cross.

Welling is probably one of the oldest settlements in this area. A neolithic stone axe was found in East Wickham in 1910 and more recently in 1989 the remains of Roman buildings were unearthed near Danson.

Before the coming of the railway, with the opening of the Bexleyheath Line on 1 May 1895, Welling was a village on the main road between London and Kent (Watling Street). It had been a traditional staging post for coaches; the presence of three inns along the main road is the result of that.

After WWI what was then Bexley Borough Council built over 400 houses north of the railway; later, when the Danson estate was sold to developers. the land to the south was opened up to suburban sprawl. The settlement incorporated the local parishes of East Wickham, Falconwood, Danson and Saint Michael's.

Welling is home to a bingo hall, a football ground - Welling United F.C., a newly refurbished library with free meeting room, IT and internet facilities and a local café, The Koffi Pot, dating from 1930s, when it was called "Ferrara's" and was famous for its widely loved ice cream. The Ferrara family still live in Welling. There is also a wide range of restaurants (mostly ethnic take-aways), various independent outlets and charity shops, lining Welling High Street (ancient Watling Street), Upper Wickham Lane, and Bellegrove Road. Welling railway station is close to Central Avenue at the Western limit of the town centre and offers direct rail links to London Bridge, Charing Cross, Victoria and Cannon Street Stations in central London, and to Dartford and other towns in north Kent.
