Crossrail levy for Lewisham developments
From April 1st, developers in Lewisham have to pay £35 per square metre of new build in a levy for TfL to raise money for Crossrail. Exemptions include domestic extensions and social housing projects. As a zone two borough, Lewisham is in the mid-price bracket for developers, with zone one developments having to cough up £50 per square metre.
Thanks to Monkeyboy for the heads up.
