On Tuesday October 22nd Lewisham’s Strategic Planning Committee gave planning consent for the controversial scheme to redevelop the former gasworks site at Lower Sydenham.
We express our deep concerns about the Barratt’s planning application proposed for the site of the former gas holders at Bell Green, which relies on tall buildings which are far too high for the area, with lower quality housing.
For the last few years, the Sydenham Society has helped to keep Sydenham Station and Station Approach looking attractive greatly aided by station staff and local traders.
The Bell Green Forum is meeting on Saturday 8th June, 11am at the Sydenham Centre, and hosting an all-ward community meeting.
Still a work in progress – but looking good so far!

Why are the Sydenham Society (and many local councillors) objecting to this development?
The latest proposals for the former gasworks site at Bell Green have been lodged by Barratt London, the developer.
Barratt London have revised their proposals for a new housing development at Lower Sydenham – to be called the Bell Green Works.
