The fun starts as soon as you arrive at Abbey Wood Station, with a ride on a vintage Routemaster Bus and our narrow gauge railway. Explore the spectacular Beam Engine House, opened in 1865 to pump the sewage out of South London, then relax and enjoy musical entertainment and an authentic Punch and Judy show over a pint of craft ale and an ice cream!
