The ward of Slade Green & Northend sits in the north‑west of the London Borough of Bexley, on the edge of suburban London where housing and light industry meet the riverfront around the River Thames. It retains a strong industrial and railway heritage - most famously the depot and riverside works - which shaped the terraces, local landmarks and a practical, working‑class character.
Today the area is largely residential with pockets of light industry and local shops, served by rail links into central London that make it popular with commuters; community life is active, with parks, residents’ groups and ongoing regeneration projects aimed at improving housing, amenities and the local high street.
