Picture WSE West Street, Erith From: "Ian Fuller" <ian.fuller@bt.com> Mildred Road is on the left and the Ship PH can be seen between the two trams, looking towards Belvedere. The level crossing to the lower ballast quay is just beyond the left hand tram. More Information		Picture BRE Bexley Road, Erith More Information	Picture JK24 This is another Erith Corporation Tramways picture taken in Lower Road, Belvedere, the road on the left is Mayfield Road, to be found on the 696/698 map. Locals, however, would probably call it Halfway House, after the nearby pub.
Picture BX1 Location Unknown	Pictures CS1 and CS2 Junction of Market Place and Bexleyheath Broadway.
Pictures BB1 and BB2 Bexleyheath Broadway. This is the Crayford side of the Clock tower. The trolleybus is outside Hides, a local department store. This is now the Broadway Shopping Centre. To the extreme left of the picture is where a WWII bomb was discovered in April 2000, which closed businesses and nearby residents were evacuated for two days. The bomb was laying there when this picture was taken!		Picture BS1 The trolleybus is emerging from Beresford Street, Woolwich. Holy Trinity Church is alongside, [demolished in 1958]. On the right of the picture is the main gates to the Royal Arsenal. [The football team were once a works team].
Picture CY1 Location thought to be between Crayford and Bexleyheath, [London Road, Watling Street]. There weren't many leafy areas on the routes.	Picture BX16 Market Place, Bexleyheath	Picture BX2 From: "John Linge"<john.linge@btinternet.com> This picture is, I am 95% sure, is between Townley Road and the Clock tower at Bexleyheath. This would mean that the trolley is just short of the same position as the tram in BX16 [left], but about 50 yards short. The trolley would have been travelling towards Dartford.
