A large part of the North Area is identified as an Opportunity Area in the Mayor of London’s New London Plan, an important document that plans good growth across the capital. A central growth corridor follows the A21 road from New Cross signalling the potential for thousands of new and genuinely affordable homes over the next 20 years. Securing the Bakerloo Line extension is a key objective that could deliver a new transport hub at New Cross and unlock investment across the entire area. Regeneration of key sites including Convoys Wharf and the Timber Yard at Deptford Wharf is already underway with plans that will celebrate the area’s industrial past and provide residential neighbourhoods for the next generation. The future of Millwall Football Club in the borough will be secured with a modern stadium, forming part of a new leisure destination with a new Overground station. The Local Plan also sets out objectives for the New Cross Road (A2 corridor), the Lewisham North Creative Enterprise Zone, the Thames policy area and Deptford Creekside as well as walking and cycling routes - North Lewisham Links. A CREATIVE HUB The Albany, Goldsmiths and Trinity Laban have inspired many and helped strengthen the borough’s reputation for culture and the arts. The Lewisham North Creative Enterprize Zone (CEZ) has successfully nourished a cluster of cultural, creative and digital industries that now contribute to the borough’s distinctive character and played a pivotal role in securing Lewisham as London Borough of Culture 2022. The CEZ will continue to steer physical development, protecting business floorspace and providing a catalyst for new businesses and flexible workspace for artists, entrepreneurs and start-up enterprises.

  • Ravensbourne Vision
    RAVENSBOURNE VISION YOUR CATCHMENT - YOUR VISION 2015-2021 Enhancing the quality of our rivers with local communities THE CATCHMENT The area of land that includes farms, parks, gardens, buildings and roads, through which water drains into the rivers and streams, makes up the catchment. The rivers of the Ravensbourne catchment rise in the London Boroughs of Bromley and Croydon and run for 25kms northwards through the Boroughs of Lewisham and Greenwich until they meet the River Thames at Deptford. The three main rivers, the Ravensbourne, Quaggy and Pool have mostly been straightened, set in concrete and diverted over time while the more natural, and naturalised, sections of the river are providing both havens for wildlife and popular places for public access to nature. 1 2 3 Norman Park Sutcliffe Park Chinbrook Meadows 4 5 6 Ladywell Fields Linear Park Cornmill Gardens RIVER RAVENSBOURNE CATCHMENT MAP 6 2 4 5 3 1 WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE We want a Ravensbourne catchment that continues to develop into a destination of enjoyment and discovery. A catchment where: • new development enhances the river and allows nature to thrive. • opportunities for leisure, education and discovery are commonplace. • community and volunteer groups are well supported in their work along the river. • enhancement and education programmes benefit local people. • A locally supported Catchment Plan that creates a path toward a healthy future for the rivers within the catchment. A natural place where: • species and habitats thrive along clean-water river corridors. • a diverse natural environment attracts people to the rivers. • a mosaic habitats and green corridors allow species to move freely throughout the catchment.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www. london.gov.uk/publication/all-london-green-grid-spg .
