What's in the Royal Arsenal?
The Royal Arsenal is growing so this section will be updated when new things arrive on the development.
Activities
Many of you will be aware of some of the history behind this development. The Firepower Museum on the corner of No. 1 Street and Duke of Wellington Avenue has an amazing array of things going on for adults and kids alike. Their website is also an amazing source of information about the history in this area.
Based across the square in the former Royal Military Academy building is the Academy Performing Arts that caters for young and old and covers everything you would want to study in Dance, Music and Drama.
Businesses
There is a growing community within the Royal Arsenal and there are many people running their own businesses, either from home or close by. Woolwich is a growing commerical area too and more companies are moving to this part of London.
The Royal Arsenal Virtual Assistant will provide an extra pair of hands for the things you don't have time to do. For other businesses such as a Dry Cleaner, Dog Walker, House Cleaner, Translator or Graphic Designer, check out the Business page of this website to find their details. We believe in supporting local people grow their businesses and are happy to include details, so let us know if there is anyone you wish to recommend.
