Deptford sorting office building could become housing

0 Comments J Smith

Plans have been submitting to potentially build housing at the former site of Deptford sorting office.

The application to Lewisham Council from Marymount Properties Ltd seeks up to nine flats.

The building dates from 1911 according to the application and is a handsome low rise block.

Hopefully the frontage at least will be preserved.

This submission is the first stage of a sped up planning process known as “Permission in Principle”. Stage one seeks to determine whether a site is suitable for development.

If agreed stage two is “Technical Details Consent” which includes the design. That stage has yet to be reached.

Details of what has so far gone in to Lewisham Council can be seen here.

I've lived in south east London most of my life growing up in Greenwich borough and working in the area for many years. The site has contributors on occasion and we cover many different topics. Living and working in the area offers an insight into what is happening locally.
