Oakdene Road
Oakdene Road
Part of an area south of Poverest Road developed before or after the Second World War, although exact timing is unclear: the 1944 Kent XVI NE 6" map based on 1938 revisions shows much of the area with housing shown in outline, whereas the 1946 London Sheet T also based on 1938 revisions still shows open countryside.

Most of the road names in the area have obvious connections with Robin Hood, inspired by the name of an area of woodland called Robin Hood Shaw which was on part of the site. However, this road would seem to be an exception.
