The history of Eltham in just 20 objects ........Nu 2 eight miles to London Bridge

The challenge is to write a history of Eltham in just 20 objects which are in no particular order, and have been selected purely at random.

Anyone who wants to nominate their own is free to do so, just add a description in no more than 200 words and send it to me.

So here we are with a mile stone announcing that it is just eight miles to London Bridge, and reminds us that for most of its history Eltham was a place in its own right and only relatively recently became a part of London.
