Lewisham May 2018 Traffic noise maps of public parks in Lewisham May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above. London Borough of Lewisham 1 1. Pepys Park 2. Deptford park 3. Sayes Court Park 2 4.

  • Bargery Road, London, SE6 2LJ Asking Price: £415,000
    Bargery Road, London, SE6 2LJ Bargery Road, London, SE6 2LJ Asking Price: £415,000 Beautiful two bedroom period conversion flat in the heart of the Culverley Green Conservation Area. The reception room is just gorgeous with light pouring through the south facing windows onto the polished wood floor, encircled by the Dado rails and picture rails on all walls. The kitchen is not to be missed either with wooden worktops, high gloss white units, Butler Sink, wood floors and range cooker and extractor, plus space for a small table and chairs. The main bedroom has plenty of light from the front, plus wood flooring and fitted cupboards. The second bedroom has room for a double bed, or would make a great home office, still with space for a sofa bed. The bathroom has a corner bath with overhead shower. And not to forget the wonderful landing which links all the rooms and, with the internal doors open, gives a real flavour of the triple aspect and the joy and light of this home. There is also a small private garden to the back to the property, where the current vendor enjoys the sunshine through much of the day, as this is a corner plot at the end of the road. There are 87 years remaining on the lease. The Ground Rent is £10 per year, and the Service Charge is currently £33.31 per month. The current vendor has really loved her flat - the light, the layout, the beautiful reception room and kitchen - but now is the time for her to move on and find a house locally.

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 .
