The Ladywell Fields Masterplan

The Lewisham Council website now has details of their plans to improve Ladywell Fields. They say:

The Council has secured almost £2m funding from the London Development Agency to invest in Ladywell Fields and along the Waterlink Way. The project will transform the central and southern parts of Ladywell Fields, which are currently underused, fragmented and featureless open spaces.

The project will:

- increase use and enjoyment of Ladywell Fields
- improve habitats within the park
- improve safety
- provide additional flood water storage

Designs will be submitted for planning approval in November 2009, and works should take place on the site from May 2010 to March 2011.
