Angerstein Wharf

Angerstein Wharf is an industrial area and location of a marine construction aggregate and an associated cement facility and freight station in the Port of London, operated by the Cemex company, located on the south bank of the Bugsby's Reach of the River Thames in both Greenwich and Charlton, within the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

This area is referred to as the Angerstein Triangle but the date of the signal works closing is unknown (believed to be in the early 1980s).

Another mile and a half siding served the South Metropolitan Gasworks, whilst a privately run firm called Christies supplied railway sleepers and had an extensive internal rail network on their site.

There was also a general goods facility dealing with manure, steel, rails, fertilisers, coal, coke, stone, flour, sand, slates, timber and petrol.

[5] Passenger trains were limited to enthusiast specials and photographic evidence of one run on 29 March 1958 can be found in Fig 65 of 'Charing Cross to Dartford' by Vic Mitchell and Keith Smith.

[7] During the 1970s the Angerstein Wharf site was used as a railhead to receive large stone boulders from Caldon Low (Staffordshire) in connection with the building of the Thames Barrier.
