Northumberland Heath is often referred to locally as "North' Heath" and is often considered to be part of upper Erith. HistoryThe area was once known as Spike Island after the workhouse that was situated there.[2] The area is mainly residential although there is a large industrial bakery in Belmont Road. Much of the housing stock is Victorian with some 1940s council developments and a Cottage estate built for local Vickers armaments workers in 1916. Nearest Railway stations are Erith and Barnehurst. There is a large Catholic church in Bexley Road (Our Lady of the Angels) with a friary attached, and a Church of England (St Paul's) in Mill Road. A conservation area on Brook Street safeguards some terraces that represent early examples of municipal housing. AmenitiesNorthumberland Heath has a Community Forum (a kind of Parish Council).[3] The Erith Rugby Club is based in Northumberland Heath.[4] The European SF Society (Eurocon) Award-winning webzine, the Science Fact & Science Fiction Concatenation [5] was founded by former locals of Northumberland Heath, some of whom have established a local SF group.[6] Northumberland Heath has an active community library which serves as one of the main foci of community activities.[7] PoliticsMost of Northumberland Heath is within Northumberland Heath ward (local Councillors are Philip Read, Peter Reader and Alex Sawyer - all Conservative), whilst other parts are within Colyers ward.
