Your Greenhithe:  Greenhithe forms part of the civil parish of Swanscombe and Greenhithe. Although part of Greenhithe (including Bluewater Shopping Centre, Charles Street and Castle Street) are in the neighbouring parish of Stone. The Boundary for Swanscombe and Greenhithe is at the dual carriageway. Greenhithe, as it is spelled today, is located where it was possible to build wharves for transshipping corn, wood and other commodities; its largest cargoes were of chalk and lime which were needed for agricultural purposes. This led in turn to the development of the cement industry at nearby Swanscombe, although Greenhithe itself enjoyed a brief period of popularity during Victorian times as a tourist resort: Greenhithe Pier was built in 1842 but does not survive. The history of Greenhithe owes a great deal to its situation between the River Thames and Watling Street (the London, Dover Road) and it being a suitable landing place for ships. In Roman times known as Gretenrsce, and by 1363 Grenehuth, it appears in the 1778 'History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent'...
