Known for
The Lewisham market (one of South London's most vibrant), the diverse food scene, Hilly Fields park, the DLR connection, and a South East London borough of great community spirit and rapid change
A little history
Lewisham has been home to successive waves of communities — Caribbeans, West Africans and more recently young professionals. The market has been the commercial heart since medieval times. The borough has some of the most diverse communities in London and a strong tradition of political activism.
The covered market and street market on the High Street are excellent — diverse food and community feel. Hilly Fields for the park and views. Blackheath for the beautiful common. The DLR and National Rail for good connectivity.
