Dist:0.3km<br/>Diagonally across Plumstead High Street from St Nicholas Gardens is the Plume of Feathers public house. Dating back to the time before cars it still has a yard to the right hand side which was used for stables. The left side gardens were originally used by tourists and travellers as a rest stop. Directly opposite the pub is St Nicholas Road which leads to St Nicholas Church.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The underlying soils on Winns Common are poor and gravelly and so the grasses tend to stay short. Gorse is also typical of these soils. The extensive views northwards extend well beyond the Thames to the Essex hills - places such as Havering-atte-Bower.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Opposite St Nicholas Gardens at the top of St Nicholas Road is the Plume of Feathers Public House. To the east of the pub is a large garden that was used by visitors using the terminus that used to be beside the pub in front of the gardens. The west side entrance leads to the old stables as the Inn was a coach stop before trams.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The ridge on which Plumstead Common lies provides fine views northwards across the Thames. This part of Plumstead Common is actually known as Winns Common and all the roads leading down from here to lower Plumstead are very steep. The road ahead is appropriately called Viewlan Road and to the right is Heath Villas, giving another clue about the history of the Common.
