The Telegraph Hill Society
|
|
|
|
The Society itself is involved in planning and architectural issues, traffic and transportation (railways, buses etc), roads and pavements, the local park and all environmental matters which affect local residents. It also has an active role in researching local history and I conduct a local history tour each year as part of the Telegraph Hill Festival.
An initiative of the Society to restore the local park came to fruition after much work from the Society, the local parks users group and Lewisham Council, in the winning of a £1.2m grant from the Lottery Heritage Fund. This has enabled the Society's ten year dream to come true: when the work is completed, the Telegraph Hill Parks will have their original ponds, gates railings and planting schemes recreated, new paths, tennis courts and play equipment, and a full time ranger. Click on the photograph of the park (or here) for my pages on the history of the park and the restoration work being undertake.
The Society has also recently redesigned the road crossing at New Cross Gate station; our scheme has been implemented by Transport for London and has cut both crossing times and accidents. Traffic calming schemes are currently high on our agenda
The picture of the local houses will take you to other snippets of information on the Hill whilst the picture of the telegraph above will take you to the Hill’s history.
You can e-mail the Society at ths@baccma.cix.co.uk or leave a message on the Hill's bulletin board.
The Telegraph Hill Society newsletter, which I edit, is free to subscribing members. Extracts are published from time to time on the Hill website run by Paul Milnes at www.thehill.org.uk.
