Abbey Wood is an area of South East London situated 13 miles east of Waterloo, 7 miles north west of Dartford and just south of the River Thames. Despite its station being in Zone 4, Abbey Wood is in the Historic County of Kent, but it now is considered to be in Greater London. This area takes its name from Lesnes Abbey Wood, an ancient woodland in southeast London.
The former Lesnes Abbey which used to stand within Lesnes Abbey Wood is now a ruin site. The Abbey’s foundations were lay in 1178 and it closed in 1525. The only burial at the Abbey is of Richard de Luci, who was the founder.

Greater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.
Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.

When do you pay your estate agent's fees?
When you sell your home using an estate agent, you normally become liable to pay fees to them when they've introduced a buyer who exchanges contracts for buying your property.
The agent's commission is normally settled on the day of completion and the standard practice is to deduct it from the net proceeds of your house sale. Your solicitor will organise this payment on your behalf.
