Hither Green
Lewisham, London
Hither Green sits between Lewisham and Catford, a ward of Edwardian terraces and small estates running around the railway junction that gives it its name. The whole ward lies in a conservation area, four listed buildings include the Grade II* Church of St Andrew and the Grade II Hither Green Library, and 28 outstanding schools are within reach. Housing is affordable relative to inner south-east London, the market has held up, and Mountsfield Park and Whitefoot Lane Playing Fields provide around 17 hectares of green. The drawbacks are clear: public-transport access relies on Hither Green rail rather than any Tube, air quality around Lee High Road is weak, the safety score is just below average, and cultural and nightlife provision is thinner than neighbouring Lewisham and Brockley — 55 food venues and under 30 non-food.
