Forest Way.

Forest Way is one of a dozen residential streets in St Mary Cray (formerly a parish in Kent, now part of the London Borough of Bromley) whose names were more or less certainly inspired by that of a small wood that existed in this area before urbanization kicked in: Robin Hood Shaw. When Forest Way was planned the area was still wooded in parts, but given several other street names in the vicinity that are obviously Robin Hood-related it seems likely that 'Forest Way' was also meant to fit into this theme. See further the page on the St Mary Cray place-name cluster. Template:PnItemQry
