End of Tenancy Cleaning Joydens Wood DA2

Joydens Wood houses an ancient woodland that was first recorded in a document in the 17th century. The housing estate lies east of the woodland. This DA2 wood is part of the Woodland Trust that manages more than 1,000 wood areas. Three species of British newts live in the nine ponds that can be found in the forest. Remains of 2,000 years old settlements have been unearthed. Small chalk caves known as deneholes have been found here. More than 1,500 years ago, Saxon settlers built a dike that can still be seen. Faesten Dic, the name of this dike, translates to “the strong dike”. It is one of the Joydens Wood landmarks.

The South East London housing estate borrows its name from this woodland. Several thousand people live in this urban village. The local educational facilities include infant and junior schools. Joydens Wood features two shopping parades. One can find the post office, library, gas station, and shops such as butchers on these streets. Joydens Wood does not have a railway or tube station. The residents use the nearby stations at Bexley and Dartford. These stations provide connections to central London. Two bus routes serve this area. The 429 bus goes to Dartford. Residents use the B12 route to reach Erith.

Joydens Wood Community Center is home to the Women’s Institute. It also hosts the local table tennis club. A pre-school was established here as well. St Barnabas’ Church serves as a worship place and also as a community center. The area has a Freeholders’ Association. Two fighter aircraft crashed in Joydens Wood during World War II. There are also some bomb craters in the forest. Remains of a 13th-century building have been found close to Summerhouse Drive. It is believed that the building was the Manor of Ocholt whose location was in the area according to records.
