The Royal Borough of Greenwich is asking residents, businesses and community groups to help shape the future of development in the borough.
The Local Plan is the Council’s main planning document, which is used to manage development such as new homes and business spaces for people to work and shop. It includes policies to ensure that new development is supported by essential infrastructure such as schools and doctor surgeries; as well as helping the Council to tackle climate change and improve air quality.
In the first phase of consultation, the Council is asking what is important to you in key areas such as housing, transport, the local economy and the environment. This feedback will be used to help produce a first draft of the new plan for further consultation next summer.
To share your feedback visit royalgreenwich.gov.uk/newlocalplan
The consultation is open until 5pm on Tuesday 5 September 2023.
During the summer holidays, children can pick up a free nutritious packed lunch from library and adventure play centres.
Between Monday 24 July and Friday 25 August, kids can grab a free lunch with no forms or fuss. Simply turn up, tuck in and enjoy.
Families will also be able to take part in a range of fun activities for children, taking the pressure of finding affordable ways to keep your little ones entertained over the holidays.

Fancy running away with the circus? You just might after watching the talented student and professional performers of AirCraft Circus Academy.
The Greenwich-based troupe are performing their Summer Circus Festival this weekend, with five shows spread across two days, and a stomach-lurching line up of routines performed both in the air and on the ground.
We run two big show events in our school every year. One is the Summer Circus Festival and the other is Greenwich Circus Festival, which runs at Christmas. The Summer Circus Festival is a platform for everyone to perform if they want to. This year, our line-up includes performances from our adult flying trapeze troupe; our advanced youth programme children; our full time students revealing their graduation piece; and a cabaret night for all adults and past performers who want to showcase new work. We will also be performing a show from our in-house professional circus company.
The summer festival is always a beautiful gathering for the community of circus and a celebration of achievements and we would like to welcome new local people.
FRIDAY JULY 21, 9PM
Twelve professional circus performers show off their skills on aerial chains, silks, hoop, duo rope,, poi and the quad trapeze.
THE FLYING SAUCERS
SATURDAY JULY 22, 7:30PM
It’s all about the trapeze in this high-flying show, featuring six student performers.
NIGHT AT THE CIRCUS MUSEUM
SATURDAY JULY 22, 8PM
Yes, it is incredibly difficult to become a circus performer and the biggest requirement is passion. Along with hard work, discipline, dedication, team work, resilience and desire to have a lot of fun!
What advice would you give to readers who are reading this and thinking they would like to give the circus a go?
Ahead of the festival, the Weekender spoke to Lucy Francis-Litton, a trained gymnast and circus performer who runs the academy with her partner Nik, for a sneak peek on what to expect…
Tell us about the Academy. Can anybody join it or do you need some qualifications first?
AirCraft Circus Academy was set up in 2018. We offer classes for all ages and abilities. We also run a specialist
programme for aspiring circus artists who want to have a career within the performing industry. We host space hires for small theatre, dance and circus organisations, and we have our own professional shows that we perform out in the industry. We are a very family focused organisation and work as a small team of people to deliver opportunities for people to be involved in circus.
You’re running a Circus Festival this summer. What can visitors expect from it?
THE PROGRAMME
ENIGMA
FRIDAY JULY 21, 8PM
See the showcase of six student circus performers who have worked intensively for 16 weeks, practising their rope, straps, silks, hoop and contortion skills.
HARD ROCK CIRCUS
It’s over to the students again, who this time are broadening their remit and performing on silks, rope, hoop, trapeze, contortion, acrobatics, juggling and poi.
SCRATCH CABARET
SATURDAY JULY 22, 9PM
Rounding off the festival is a Smörgåsbord of 16 acts, including aerial, acrobatics, trapeze, rope, hoop and silks.
It presumably takes a lot of bravery as well as skill to become a circus performer. What would you say are the key traits?
Give it a go! There is something in circus for everyone. If you don’t like heights then try something on the ground like juggling. If you don’t like heights, try aerial anyway because it’s not as bad as you think. It’s a great way to keep fit and strong, plus it’s very social, fun and a loving, caring and supportive environment to be a part of.
I’d like to add that we are dedicated to making circus available for everyone of all ages and abilities, and we cater to almost everyone as best we can. We have the means to offer disabled taster sessions and often run these for special educational needs groups.
AirCraft Circus Academy, Thames-Side Studios, Unit 7A, Mellish House, Harrington Way SE18 5NR. Shows on Friday July 21 at 8pm and 9pm, and Saturday July 22 at 7:30pm, 8pm and 9pm. Admission: £25.

It’s become an annual highlight of the palace’s summer programme, and this year its resurrection comes with more galloping horses, flying arrows, tooting trumpets and crashing armoury: Mediaeval Season is running throughout the summer holidays at Eltham Palace, giving visitors of all ages a taste of what life was like in, er, less civilised times, writes Holly O’Mahony…
It’s become an annual highlight of the palace’s summer programme, and this year its resurrection comes with more galloping horses, flying arrows, tooting trumpets and crashing armoury: Mediaeval Season is running throughout the summer holidays at Eltham Palace, giving visitors of all ages a taste of what life was like in, er, less civilised times, writes Holly O’Mahony…
‘When exactly was the Medieval Era?,’ you’d be forgiven for asking. It went on longer than you might think, running from the 5th – 15th centuries. On the one hand, it was a time of economic expansion, where progress was made in defining territories, and while methods for farming were basic, there was work aplenty out in the fields, sowing crops and collecting in the harvest. But on the other, they were grisly times, when diseases
were rampant and putting a foot wrong could see you put to death in a number of gruesome ways. There will be none of that at Eltham Palace, but you will have the chance to take part in jester workshops – clowning about and making your friends laugh. You can also listen in on some Medieval storytelling, try your hand at archery and take lessons in courtly etiquette – which just might pluck you from the fields and put you in the palace, if you learn how to act like a lady or a gent.
Medieval characters will be roaming the grounds too. Introduce yourself to them and they just might tip you off about further goings on in the palace grounds. The season is promising different activities
each week, so check out the palace’s social pages to find out what’s happening when.
Eltham Palace and Gardens, Court Yard, Eltham, Greenwich, SE9 5NP. July 31 - September 3, 10am - 5pm. Admission: £18/£11 children. www.englishheritage.org.uk/visit/whats-on/ eltham-medieval-season/
Day rave KISSTORY is set to bring the party to Blackheath Common next Saturday, so if you want to be up there bopping along to old school tunes and retro anthems, be sure to bag your tickets. While very much a multi-generational affair, this one is for adult families only, with all visitors required to be over 18, writes Holly O’Mahony…
The festival is organised by radio station Kisstory, a sister to Kiss radio, known for playing ‘old skool and anthems’. The festival is essentially a physical embodiment of the radio station’s spirit and a chance for fans to get together for a musical nostalgia fest. It rolls out annually in three locations, playing Norwich and Bristol before rolling into London’s Blackheath.
Hosted by TV presenter Tyler West, the noughtiesheavy line-up this year includes Ms. Dynamite, Sabrina Washington (of Mis-Teeq acclaim), General Levy, Lisa Maffia & MC Romeo, Sweet Female Attitude, Big Brovaz & Booty Luv, Artful Dodger, DJ Pied Piper & Da Click and many more.
Beyond the music, there will be fairground rides for those looking to get high and dizzy, street food for those in need of lining their stomach and a scattering of bars dotted about the site for those looking for a little something to help them let their hair down. Beyond the main stage, there will be DJs providing a soundtrack to other corners of the common, and special guests popping up throughout the day.
KISSTORY on Blackheath Common, Shooters Hill Road, London, SE3 7AS. July 29, 12pm10pm. Admission: £56+. www.kiss-tickets. com/article/kisstory-on-blackheath/

In the summer holidays, CACT will be hosting six weeks of football fun across our venues. Every day on the holiday courses is different, the coaches could be holding a tournament one day and working on drills the next.
Aimed at those aged 4-15, the young people are divided into smaller groups by age and ability when first arrive before they begin working on their football skills, with FA qualified coaches. The courses run every halfterm and school holiday at venues across South East London and Kent.
It’s so important to encourage young people’s passion for football and inspire them to continue developing their football skills, particularly young girls which is why CACT runs girls only courses to help encourage their participation. Some of the young people who come along to the courses are lucky enough to meet Charlton Athletic players from the men’s and women’s teams.
Last summer participants at the training ground got the opportunity to meet Chuks Aneke and Conor McGrandles who took part in an interactive Q&A session with the young people about all things Charlton and their football tips.
CACT also runs regular football sessions throughout school termtime with Charlton Challenge for young people aged 2-12, as well as a variety of other football-based programmes. From April 2021-April 2022, CACT saw an incredible 5,014 participants across its football sports development programmes!
This summer CACT is hosting holiday football courses at Charlton Athletic’s Training Ground in New Eltham as well as Thamesmead, Bromley, Maidstone, Sevenoaks and Ashford.
We have plenty of spaces available so book a place now by visiting: cact.gives/courses
One of the busiest times of year for CACT’s football coaches is when the school holiday football courses start! Join

This week’s entry in the Industrial Archaeology of South-East London, taken in alphabetical order, takes us back to sites in the Arsenal - ‘canal’. And what does SELIA have to say about the Arsenal Canal, “built between 1812 and 1816 to the design of Lt Col Pilkington, the Arsenal chief engineer? “This half mile long canal was originally intended for transporting timber to the carriage department. The canal had an average depth of 11 ft and a width of 45 ft with one lock (still in situ) from the Thames. After 1851 considerable quantities of gunpowder were moved via the canal. The upper reaches of canal were filled in between 1926 and 1936, but the remaining section is still ‘in water’ and is to be incorporated into the new development”
Well we will have to see about that – and remembering that SELIA was written in 1982 and that many changes have happened since. The ‘new development” they mention is, of course, Thamesmead. There has been a considerable amount of research since then and before I get any further I would like to thank Ian Bull whose knowledge of all things Arsenal has been a vast amount of help to me. So much about the Arsenal is not easy to research since it is not shown on many maps and most records have been destroyed.
However, as relics go, this one isn’t that difficult to see. At its southern end is a large open area at the back of the shops in Whinchat Way, SE28. At the northern end it is under the Riverside Path but a vast concrete wall blocks any sign of it as the path crosses over the entrance. There are however gaps in the houses and some amenity spaces on either side of the ex-canal from which it can be spotted. It is not a pretty sight. As far as I’m aware there is now no water in it, beyond a few puddles, and all you can
see is a vast expanse of flattish concrete.
The canal was designed by Royal Engineer Lt Col Robert Pilkington, who had had experience in canal building Cascades in Canada. It was originally intended as a defensive barrier along the eastern edge of the central Arsenal area. It was built with wooden walls by local contractors Hugh Mackintosh and William Bough using convict labour from the hulks moored off the site. It was also to deliver materials into the heart of the Arsenal; for example to bring timber to the Royal Carriage Department and to a sawmill. It was also, as SELIA, says used for the safe transport of gunpowder from the Royal Gunpowder Mills at Waltham Abbey.
It opened in 1816 and on its banks all sorts of departments came and went and it was eventually lined with warehouses. On the east side was a rocket establishment developing missiles and using hydraulic presses to manufacture Hale’s rockets – which were painted red when they left the factory. On the
west side was the New Army Ordnance stores. In 1856 the Arsenal gasworks was built near the entrance lock although it seems likely their coal was delivered directly from the Thames. Shot and shell was unloaded from the canal at a specialist wharf. At its southern end the canal split into two branches which partly encircled an area known as Frog Island’ where there was a shell filling works, a timber yard and a percussion cap store. Nearby was the cartridge establishment. It is possible that military vessels were brought to the canal for repair.
There was an entrance lock to allow boats
to lock out into the Thames and was also a flood defence for the whole Arsenal complex. There was a lock keeper’s house but no trace of that remains. Across the top of the lock was a swing bridge which carried a standard gauge rail line belonging to the South Eastern Railway. This bridge was hydraulically operated as early as 1866. Later a narrow gauge railway from one of the Arsenal’s internal systems also used this bridge and it was designed for mixed gauge operation. The lock has survived but is cut off from the Thames by the concrete wall I mentioned above. In 1983 the Greater London Council carried out substantial
repairs to the lock gates and the swing bridge. At that time it was thought that a light railway system coming from Thamesmead and going to Greenwich would use the bridge but this, of course, has never happened. The lock and the swing bridge are now Grade 2 listed.
After the Great War two more railway bridges were built across the canal although they only lasted a few years.
Between 1926 and 1936 the area around Frog Island was closed and infilled and in 1937 New Chemical Laboratories were
built here. It is now the site of the Plumstead bus garage and other industrial and retail sites
This section of the Arsenal site –known as Broadwater – was one of the earliest developed by the Greater London Council. They had considerable plans for amenities in the area which would include use of the canal. At the same time as they worked on the lock the GLC concreted the bed of the canal and reinforced the banks with sheet steel piling. I can remember going down to see it when the Council built slipways so boats could
be pulled up at the back of the Whinchat shops. Then the water was clean and bright and I guess the GLC had great plans for it.
But when the Council was abolished most of their ideas were never implemented. The area is now controlled by the Peabody housing group who have taken over the management of Thamesmead generally.
Several years ago on holiday in Scotland we stayed in Greenock alongside the Clyde. We had noticed a group of industrial buildings a
bit up the road and thought we would investigate what they were - and found, to our amazement, that they were a part of the Royal Arsenal. It emerges that torpedo manufacture in the Arsenal led to the canal being used, as a long thin stretch of water, to test torpedoes. One of these torpedoes was found in the bed of the canal when it was being renovated and it is understood that this is in the Museum of Naval Firepower in Gosport - but I’ve been unable to identify it from entries in their catalogue although they do have two torpedoes made in Woolwich Arsenal.
Surprisingly there is considerable coverage of this testing in the canal in the local press - normally whatever went on in the Arsenal was completely closed off and never mentioned in the local papers.
But it seems the torpedo range in the 1870s was very very much covered by them.
“FATAL TORPEDO EXPLOSION AT WOOLWICH … one of the newlyinvented fish torpedoes …. exploded while undergoing a trial in the Arsenal Canal. ……..it was placed in a tube ready to be despatched along the canal for trial, when the air chamber exploded with fearful violence …… part of the torpedo was thrown into the timber held, sixty yards away. ….. Edward Baker.. died in a few minutes …. William Fishenden is mortally injured.”1874
So what has this to do with Greenock in Scotland? Well, in 1907 torpedo testing began to take place in Loch Long - in fact there is still a military establishment there. In 1910, 700
workers transferred to Scotland from Woolwich. The Greenock factory carried out design and manufacture of torpedoes which were tested in Loch Long, then during the Second World War work switched entirely to manufacturing torpedoes. I have learned since about the major upset both in Greenock and in Woolwich around the number of workers who moved to Scotland as part of this transfer of work. Local Histories of Greenock often include memories of these, often discontented, south Londoners. Use of the canal probably stopped when the Arsenal ended work with ammunition in the early 1960s. It was then used to dump chemical effluent, leading to frequent changes in water colour. Manufacturing at the Arsenal finished completely in 1967 and this part of the site was sold to the Greater London Council.
Following the demise of the GLC it seems nobody very much seemed to know what to do with the old canal. Its ownership and management defaulted to Peabody, whose plans for it are very unclear. It seems there’s been talk of filling in the whole thing in and reports on this were submitted to Greenwich Council. At the moment the ‘canal’ remains without water and looking very grim. Peabody say they will do nothing without consulting local residents although I guess local residents would like something done with it. But, as ever, there is no funding

AS MODIFIED BY ARTICLE 34 OF THE ORDER
Power to make a general vesting declaration
1. Thames Water Utilities Limited (hereinafter called the “Thames Water”) may acquire any of the land described in the Schedule below by making a general vesting declaration pursuant to Article 28 and 34 of the Order and under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981. This has the effect, subject to paragraph 4 below, of vesting the land in Thames Water’s ownership at the end of the period mentioned in paragraph 2 below. A declaration may not be made before the end of a period of two months from the first publication of a notice which includes this statement except with the consent in writing of every occupier of the land affected Notices concerning general vesting declaration
2. As soon as may be after Thames Water make a general vesting declaration, they must serve notice of it on every occupier of any of the land specified in the declaration (except land where there is one of the tenancies described in paragraph 3) and on every person who gives them information relating to the land in pursuance of the invitation contained in any notice. When the service of notices of the general vesting declaration is completed, a further period begins to run. This period, which must not be less than 28 days, will be specified in the declaration. On the first day after the end of this period (“the vesting date”) the land described in the declaration will, subject to what s said in paragraph 4, vest in Thames Water, together with the right to enter on the land and take possession of it. Every person on whom Thames Water could have served a notice to treat in respect of his interest in the land (other than a tenant under one of the tenancies described in paragraph 3) will be entitled to claim compensation for the acquisition of his interest in the land, with interest on the compensation from the vesting date. Modifications with respect to certain tenancies
3. In the case of certain tenancies, the position stated above is subject to modifications. The modifications apply where the tenancy is either a “minor tenancy”, i.e. a tenancy for a year or a yearly tenancy or a lesser interest, or “a long tenancy which is about to expire”. The latter expression means a tenancy granted for an interest greater than a minor tenancy but having on the vesting date a period still to run which is not more than the period specified in the declaration for this purpose (which must not be more than a year). In calculating how long a tenancy has still to run, where an option to renew or to terminate it is available to either party, it shall be assumed that the landlord will take every opportunity open to him to terminate the tenancy while the tenant will use every opportunity to retain or renew his interest.
4. The modifications are that Thames Water may not exercise the right of entry referred to in paragraph 2 in respect of land subject to a tenancy described in paragraph 3 unless they first serve a notice to treat in respect of the tenancy and then serve every occupier of the land with a notice of their intention to enter and take possession after the period (not less than 14 days from the service of the notice) specified in the notice. The right of entry will be exercisable at the end of that period. The vesting of the land will be subject to the tenancy until the end of that period or until the tenancy comes to an end, whichever happens first.

Dated 19th July 2023
Following an agreement to inject another £4.75m into Greenwich Supports, we have now invested a total of £10million to help residents with the cost of living.
With record numbers of families in temporary accommodation, we are facing a massive housing shortage. Almost 2,000 households are in temporary accommodation in our borough alone, with more than 200 in hotels and hostels, due to a lack of available homes.
Councillor Anthony Okereke, Leader of the Royal Borough of Greenwich, said: “We are experiencing a massive housing crisis; however, we are one of the first authorities to give cash directly to households currently in hotels so they can have hot meals even when they do not have cooking facilities.
“Not only as a council, but as fellow human beings, we owe it to each other to make sure basic needs are met no matter the circumstances.”
Councillor Mariam Lolavar, Cabinet Member for Inclusive Economy, Business and Skills, said:
“This latest decision on financial support is just sticking plaster on a much deeper issue brought about by out-of-control inflation, stagnant wages that don’t reflect rising costs and a failure for Welfare Benefits to meet the basic needs of our residents.
“This needs to be resolved at the source, but in the meantime, we are working towards a long-term plan for our residents to ensure that we support our most vulnerable residents during their times of greatest need.”
• £740,000 to our Emergency Support Scheme, to support residents during unexpected hardship and residents in temporary hotel accommodation
• Over £3.1million in cash payments to families during the holidays, care leavers, residents unable to access financial support due to their immigration status and those on low income with a disability.
• £400,000 to Greenwich Co-operative Development Agency (GCDA) to buy food to stock local foodbanks and pantries
• £50,000 to Charlton Athletic Community Trust to deliver our Stay Warm and Stay Safe scheme, which supports with rising fuel costs.
• £50,000 to LiveWell Greenwich to help managing health and wellbeing.
• £100,000 to fund Warm and Welcoming spaces.
• £150,000 to strengthen our Money Advice Team.
