About Fencing in Sidcup
Sidcup in Kent grew from a scattered hamlet into a substantial suburb after the railway arrived in the 19th century, and the area's chalk geology connects it to the same remarkable cave network that runs beneath neighbouring Chislehurst, first mined for flint thousands of years ago and later extended by Roman, Saxon and medieval workers. Sidcup Place, a Georgian manor house built in the 1740s, still stands in its own park today and now serves as a local library and community venue, one of the few substantial reminders of the area's earlier rural character.
