More about Lewisham
Lewisham is one of the largest of the inner London
boroughs, with an area of 13.7 square miles. It lies
south-east of the City, between Southwark to the west,
Greenwich to the east, and Bromley to the south. There
is a short frontage to the Thames in the north. The 2001
census estimated the population at just under 250,000,
of whom nearly a quarter described themselves as black
or black British.
It is a young population, with an average age of 35,
against a national 39. More than half the households are
flats.
The borough comprises three old administrative parishes,
St Mary Lewisham, St Margaret Lee, and St Paul Deptford.
Lewisham and Lee had similar histories as farming
villages turning gradually into fairly affluent suburbs,
though Lewisham also had some industry in the eighteenth
century, based upon the water power of the Ravensbourne.
Lewisham and Lee were combined in 1900 to form the
Metropolitan Borough of Lewisham. By that time the
status of the area was changing under the pressure of
improved transport services, of which trams were the
most significant. The merchants and bankers who had been
the typical nineteenth century residents were moving
further out, and commercial clerks now formed the
largest group.
Deptford was already a large industrial town while
Lewisham and Lee were quiet villages. The huge growth of
the population in the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries, based economically on the expansion of the
Royal Dockyard, the Victualling Yard, which provisioned
the Navy, and the various private dockyards, led to the
building of the new church of St Paul, one of the Queen
Anne churches. In 1730 this was separated from the
ancient riverside parish of St Nicholas. The division
was made by splitting in half the rateable value of the
area. This meant that St Nicholas retained most of the
closely built streets beside the Thames, with almost no
scope for further growth, while St Paul received all the
farmland in the south and west of Deptford. The result
was that St Paul quickly became immensely more populous
and wealthy than its mother parish.
In 1900 the parish of St Paul became the Metropolitan
Borough of Deptford. This would have been a good moment
to reunite the two Deptford parishes, but because the
population of Greenwich was below the average it was
decided to add St Nicholas to Greenwich to bring the
borough totals closer to equality. As a result the 1730
division of Deptford still remains in force, although
there have been boundary adjustments in recent years,
one of which has transferred the old Royal Dockyard site
from Greenwich to Lewisham.
The present London Borough of Lewisham was created in
1965, by the amalgamation of the Metropolitan Boroughs
of Lewisham and Deptford. This was not so painless as
the junction between Lewisham and Lee in 1900. There
were objections on both sides, because of the very
different social and political situations of the two
districts, and because historic Deptford objected to
having its identity submerged in Lewisham, but forty
years have done much to smooth the differences.
