Westcombe Park is a largely residential area in Blackheath in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, South East London, England.

[3] Broadly, this covers an area bounded to the north by the stretch of railway line between Vanbrugh Hill and Westcombe Hill, to the east by the A102 Blackwall Tunnel southern approach, to the south by Westcombe Park Road, and to the west by Ulundi Road.

[4] Its most notable existing landmark, and only Listed building (grade II),[5] is Woodlands House, in Mycenae Road.

This four-storey Georgian villa (architect: George Gibson) still lies in its own grounds and was built between 1774 and 1776 for John Julius Angerstein, a Lloyd's underwriter and merchant whose collection of old master paintings was bought for the nation in 1824, following his death, to form the nucleus of the National Gallery, London.

In 1796, the building was described in Daniel Lysons' Environs of London: It was later, from 1827, leased as the home of Deptford shipbuilder, shipowner and timber merchant Thomas Brockelbank (co-founder of the General Steam Navigation Company), after whose death, on 10 June 1843,[11] it was eventually demolished in 1855.

The footbridge from which Andy Hunter, played by Michael Higgs, was pushed to his death is easily identifiable as the bridge (over the A102 Blackwall Tunnel southern approach) that runs from Farmdale Road to Westcombe Park railway station.

The library is equipped with wi-fi Internet access and has a range of music and video DVDs as well as books and journals.

Batley's contribution is recorded in an inscription on a memorial fountain, unveiled in May 1889, and he is also commemorated by a stained glass window in the church.

Blackheath also has a notable number of 'alternative' health practitioners, e.g.: acupuncture, homeopathy, hypnosis, chiropracty and crystal healing.
