After many years and at least £6 billion of levelling up money that was ear marked for deprived northern cities being spent, I am pleased to announce that the new Beresford Square is open!
As you can see the locals are really appreciating their new refuse management centre.

Walked through at 6am yesterday morning, litter everywhere.
The biggest joke is that Greenwich Council ‘green shirts’ will happily stalk and fine cigarette smokers disguarding around Lizzy line, but do absolutely nothing about this ! Double standards or what !
I hate people littering skateparks
alright well that started off pretty…
I didn’t see any bins in your video though, are there plenty around?
(I know that it’s no excuse, and _I_ take my litter with me if there’s no bin, as I’m sure do most other people reading this. But a quick way to reduce litter and give no excuse would be to actually add bins?)
I think I saw you recording this video on my way into work this morning – there was so much rubbish everywhere
They’re sorting out the gatehouse at the moment as well so that can be open. Nothing on when the Woolwich exchange work (that’s been 15 years in the making) will start, they were supposed to have started work last month, but nothing. Also surrounding businesses need to vacate by August for the building work but apparently new businesses have recently moved in… doesn’t bode well.
Any work that marries royal arsenal with the rest of Woolwich is good in my book. London square development by the big tescos has started building work as well. Just need the DLR station to be built on too and the council can start fulfilling its decade long promises…
Humans are disgusting
Ahh , the curious beauty of Woolwich in the wild. Thank you for reminding me why I left !!
What a shithole
Fuck is wrong with people.
Clearly, during the hottest week of the summer so far it’s going to be very popular with people and it only takes a few idiots for this to happen. The good thing is that the space is now available for people to congregate and commune together. I’m not sure what was there before, most likely parking and/or road space which nobody bothers filming how shit and depressing it always looks because we’re so desensitized to it.
It’s Woolwich – what did you think would happen?
As someone who grew up in Woolwich. The community is just gone, no one has respect for their fellow Londoner/countryman anymore. Shits sad
Dont get me wrong, Woolwich was always a shithole but i feel like there was at least a sense of everyone in the same boat and a shared culture
Are we saying this sort of thing wouldn’t happen in a similar area up north?
So ugly. It was ten times better in the 90’s when it was a green space surrounded by benches (and drunks) They should have just kept that and landscaped it.
Disgusting. Looks like anywhere else like croydon
This is why SE London can’t have nice things.
Abbey wood is the same, they did it up a bit around the station and now looks like shit.
‘London isn’t as dirty as Paris’ etc etc. People have awful manners and half the councils are broke so can’t afford rigorous cleaning
Lived in Woolwich in the 1990s and early 2000s. Glad to see the place hasn’t changed.
It is the home of the first McDonalds in the UK though, so it’s got that going for it.
Even if the rubbish wasn’t there, it looks sterile and depressing as hell.
Where are you getting the £6 billion number from?
Woolwich always was, still is, and always will be a complete fucking shit-tip of a place.
Wish there were ways in which people could be identified who do this. They just don’t care
That’s vile
Why can’t we have nice things. I walked past that brick building last night and thought to myself that they should just leave the fencing up so it stays looking nice…
This is what happens when people don’t care about the area in which they live because the taxpayer pays everything for them.
£6bn! What a bargain, I personally doubled the national debt redoing my garden, should have got these involved.
I’ve just come back from a few days in Rega, no rubbish anywhere.
What is it with the UK and dropping rubbish on the streets?
you lot are too sensitive
woolwich is about to be the epicentre of the new britpop revival era
you don’t get iconic worldwide dominating albums from clean sterile areas with no soul
you get it from areas like this where everyone drinks too much alcohol and people have kebab juice stains on their t-shirts and where you see individuals argue with pigeons at 3am
Wild to me how different the two areas of Woolwich are from across the street.
Used to like woolwich as a kid. Weekend market and shopping was great, but that was over years ago, and now it’s a decaying shit pile.
Yay! Finally people paying half a million for a study in the river front apartments are getting suitable, luxury surroundings!
