Consultation on new mixed-use development at Abbey Wood Post Office site
With the imminent closure of Abbey Wood Post Office (the only Crown Post Office in Greenwich borough) coming soon, there’s news of a consultation on what is to be built in its place.

Peabody are now pushing this scheme:
Will the new developers go higher given that scheme?
Find out next week. The consultation runs from 4pm-8pm on Thursday 10th January at the C2K centre on Penmon Road/Eynsham Drive.
Adverts are far from enough to cover living costs and and pay to keep it going with hosting fees, URL fees and Theme costs adding into the hundreds of pounds.
