All London Green Grid River Cray and Southern Marshes Area Framework
All River Cray and Southern Marshes London Area Framework Green Grid 5 Contents 1 Foreword and Introduction 2 All London Green Grid Vision and Methodology 3 ALGG Framework Plan 4 ALGG Area Frameworks 5 ALGG Governance 6 Area Strategy 8 Area Description 9 Strategic Context 10 Vision 12 Objectives 14 Opportunities 16 Project Identification 18 Project Update 20 Clusters 22 Projects Map 24 Rolling Projects List 28 Phase Two Early Delivery 30 Project Details 48 Forward Strategy 50 Gap Analysis 51 Recommendations 53 Appendices 54 Baseline Description 56 ALGG SPG Chapter 5 GGA05 Links 58 Group Membership Note: This area framework should be read in tandem with All London Green Grid SPG Chapter 5 for GGA05 which contains statements in respect of Area Description, Strategic Corridors, Links and Opportunities. 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 . -

Bexley Growth Strategy
www.bexley.gov.uk Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Bexley Growth Strategy December 2017 Leader’s Foreword Following two years of detailed technical work and consultation, I am delighted to present the Bexley Growth Strategy that sets out how we plan to ensure our borough thrives and grows in a sustainable way. For centuries, Bexley riverside has been a place of enterprise and endeavour, from iron working and ship fitting to silk printing, quarrying and heavy engineering. People have come to live and work in the borough for generations, taking advantage of its riverside locations, bustling town and village centres and pleasant neighbourhoods as well as good links to London and Kent, major airports, the Channel rail tunnel and ports. Today Bexley remains a popular place to put down roots and for businesses to start and grow. We have a wealth of quality housing and employment land where large and small businesses alike are investing for the future. We also have a variety of historic buildings, neighbourhoods and open spaces that provide an important link to our proud heritage and are a rich resource. We have great schools and two world-class performing arts colleges plus exciting plans for a new Place and Making Institute in Thamesmead that will transform the skills training for everyone involved in literally building our future. History tells us that change is inevitable and we are ready to respond and adapt to meet new opportunities. London is facing unprecedented growth and Bexley needs to play its part in helping the capital continue to thrive. But we can only do that if we plan carefully and ensure we attract the right kind of quality investment supported by the funding of key infrastructure by central government, the Mayor of London and other public bodies. -

Bexley Bird Report 2016
Bexley Bird Report 2016 Kingfisher –Crossness – Donna Zimmer Compiled by Ralph Todd June 2017 Bexley Bird Report 2016 Introduction This is, I believe, is the very first annual Bexley Bird Report, it replaces a half yearly report previously produced for the RSPB Bexley Group Newsletter/web-site and Bexley Wildlife web- site. I shall be interested in any feedback to try and measure how useful, informative or welcome it is. I suspect readers will be surprised to read that 153 different species turned up across the Borough during the 12 months of 2016. What is equally impressive is that the species reports are based on just over 13,000 individual records provided by nearly 80 different individuals. Whilst every endeavour has been made to authenticate the records they have not been subject to the rigorous analysis they would by the London Bird Club (LBC) as would normally be the case prior to publication in the annual London Bird Report (LBR). This report has also been produced in advance of the final data being available from LBC as this is not available until mid-summer the following year – it is inevitable therefore that some records might be missing. I am, however, confident no extra species would be added. The purpose of the report is four-fold:- To highlight the extraordinary range of species that reside, breed, pass through/over or make temporary stops in the Borough To hopefully stimulate a greater interest not only in the birds but also the places in which they are found. Bexley Borough has a wide range of open spaces covering a great variety of habitat types. -

Introduction 1.1. The Southern Entrance Project: Overview Following completion of the Revitalise Burgess Park project in 2012, Southwark Council is looking to improve other areas of the park which have not had any changes made to them. During the first two phases of the park’s revitalisation, no improvements were made to the south western area of the park including Rust Square, the nature area and adjacent grassland. Southwark Council now plan to landscape and improve this area of the park and we are calling this the Southern Entrance Project. -

Key Species in Bexley
www.bexley.gov.uk Key species in Bexley Bexley is home to a huge number of different plants and animals. Some of these are rare or declining, and Bexley's populations of them are of regional or national importance. A species does not have to be rare or threatened to be interesting and important. They may have strong cultural significance, or simply look or sound beautiful. Bats Bats are fascinating and unique animals, the only true flying mammals. At least nine of the 16 species of bat in the UK have been recorded in Bexley. All of Britain's bats have suffered serious declines during the past century, mainly due to loss of roosting sites and declines in insect numbers and diversity. All bats are protected under UK and European Union law. Places which provide good foraging habitat are very important to bats, as are roosting and breeding sites. Black poplar The native black poplar (or water poplar) is a scarce and declining tree in Britain. Almost all of Britain's surviving black poplars have been planted and derive from just a handful of individual trees which have been cloned. There is a fine mature black poplar in the churchyard at the south end of Foots Cray Meadows. Several more black poplars have been planted in the meadows, and some of these are now quite large. Two more mature black poplars, near the restaurant in Danson Park, were planted in the 1960s. Bluebell Bluebells are still common and widespread in suitable habitats, but there is some concern that climate change might cause them problems, especially in the south-east, where the climate is expected to become much drier. -
Provisional Checklist and Account of the Mammals of the London Borough of Bexley
PROVISIONAL CHECKLIST AND ACCOUNT OF THE MAMMALS OF THE LONDON BOROUGH OF BEXLEY Compiled by Chris Rose BSc (Hons), MSc. 4th edition. December 2016. Photo: Donna Zimmer INTRODUCTION WHY PROVISIONAL? Bexley’s mammal fauna would appear to be little studied, at least in any systematic way, and its distribution is incompletely known. It would therefore be premature to suggest that this paper contains a definitive list of species and an accurate representation of their actual abundance and geographical range in the Borough. It is hoped, instead, that by publishing and then occasionally updating a ‘provisional list’ which pulls together as much currently available information as can readily be found, it will stimulate others to help start filling in the gaps, even in a casual way, by submitting records of whatever wild mammals they see in our area. For this reason the status of species not thought to currently occur, or which are no longer found in Bexley, is also given. Mammals are less easy to study than some other groups of species, often being small, nocturnal and thus inconspicuous. Detecting equipment is needed for the proper study of Bats. Training in the live-trapping of small mammals is recommended before embarking on such a course of action, and because Shrews are protected in this regard, a special licence should be obtained first in case any are caught. Suitable traps need to be purchased. Dissection of Owl pellets and the identification of field signs such as Water Vole droppings can help fill in some of the gaps. Perhaps this document will be picked up by local students who may be looking for a project to do as part of their coursework, and who will be able to overcome these obstacles. -

Bexley’s parks and open spaces have for many years received tremendous support from such volunteers who are members of a number of Friends Groups that work closely with Bexley’s Parks Team to create clean, well maintained parks and open spaces that have in the past won awards and are greatly enjoyed by one and all. The work of the Friends Groups varies from practical tasks such as tree whip and bulb planting, litter clearing, maintenance of herbaceous borders, clearance of heathland, maintenance and litter clearance along Bexley’s rivers are just a few of the works carried out, together with fund raising and external funding applications. So if you like rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands dirty and wish to contribute towards the wonderful achievements which are taking place in the Boroughs green spaces we have the opportunities to help you achieve your aspirations, which are greatly valued and which significantly benefit residents and visitors to Bexley whilst at the same time promotes health and wellbeing to one and all.
