Barnehurst Avenue runs north from Merewood Road up to the Erith Road.
By 1932 development had started on the ’Mayplace Estate’ which was built by developers W.H. Wedlock Ltd. on fairly difficult terrain for building. The estate was laid out between Erith Road and Barnehurst Avenue and roads took names associated with the Lake District.
A new pub called ’The Red Barn’ was built in 1936 by Arnolds of Chelmsford.
To the east of Barnehurst Avenue, New Ideal Homesteads Ltd began their ’Barnehurst Park Estate’.
