Local Information for Thamesmead

Drive your car to the southern bank of the Thames in London and spread across the boroughs of Bexley and Greenwich you’ll find the town of Thamesmead. Built as a ‘new town’, it housed many of the families being moved out of Central London due to the clearing of slum areas, and was done so over land that was previously occupied by the Royal Arsenal over Erith and Plumstead Marshes.

In 1953, the North Sea Floods swamped the area so many of the planned houses were to be built at least two storeys high with garages only to be on ground level. There is still a stigma attached to the area due to its beginnings in life as a council overflow area and it is also directly in the flight path of planes coming into London City Airport.

But housing is still being constructed and prices are not too expensive (due in part to the continuing stigma, but also because of the poor transport links to the area), considering its proximity to the city centre.

Much of the original housing was built by the Greater London Council, which was abolished in 1986, and everything was handed over to the non-profit Thamesmead Town Limited, which was done away with in 2000. Gallions Housing Association assumed ownership and management of the housing assets and Tilfen Land took control of the undeveloped land.
