Greenwich Council has deferred a decision on the proposed development for the former Lewisham College site in Deptford Bridge.

Greenwich Council's Planning Board deferred a decision on the proposed development for the former Lewisham College site in Deptford Bridge in September 2026. The board unanimously postponed its determination on the application, which seeks full planning permission for a cross-borough project.

The proposed development at 1 Deptford Bridge involves demolishing the existing building and constructing new structures ranging from 1 to 30 storeys. These buildings are intended for a mix of uses, including residential, commercial, community facilities, and educational purposes.

The deferral by Greenwich Council's Planning Board was made pending Lewisham Council's determination on the same application (reference: DC/25/139390).
