The Council and local community members are backing a £6.9 million funding bid to restore the Avery Hill Winter Garden to its former glory.
Cllr Matt Hartley, Leader of the Opposition, said: “The Avery Hill Winter Garden is a precious community asset – and its restoration is long overdue. The community has campaigned extremely hard to restore the Winter Garden to its former glory, and if successful, this new bid for funding will unlock an exciting future for what could become a major visitor attraction. The bid has wide public support – including crossparty support in our borough – and we are all rooting for its success.” Read more at uk/avery-hill-bidroyalgreenwich.gov.
The application has received support from a wealth of local people and community groups including Eltham Town and Avery Hill ward Councillors, Cllr Sammy Backon, Cllr Lauren Dingsdale and Cllr Pat Greenwell, local MP Clive Efford, the Mayor of London, the Friends of Avery Hill, the University of Greenwich, the Eltham Society, Greenwich Parks Forum and the Royal Greenwich Heritage Trust. It comes after a community campaign to save the iconic building, the second largest glass house of it’s type in the UK collected 3,800 petition signatures. The £11.7 million restoration project would allow the structural repairs needed to return it to its original grandeur, as well as retrofit work to improve the environmental performance of the building, ensuring its sustainability for years to come. The work will provide dedicated spaces for visitors, educational activities and hospitality events, upgrades to footpaths and signage to improve accessibility, and the installation of cycle parking and four electric vehicle chargers to encourage greener travel. Both the restoration work and operation of the venue will create job opportunities and Cllrapprenticeships.AdelKhaireh, Cabinet Member for Equality, Culture and Communities, said: “The Avery Hill Winter Garden is a hidden gem within our borough, but we want to bring it into full view for residents and visitors alike to enjoy. “This investment would allow us to preserve and enhance the history and heritage of this beautiful building, providing a sustainable multi-use community venue and spectacular backdrop for cultural events. We’re determined to make this historic landmark serve the whole community and support the economic and cultural growth of the area.”

By Holly O’Mahony Next-gen jazz She’s a fresh face on the music scene, but close your eyes and her voice will transport you back to the jazz of yesteryear. Southeast London singer-songwriter Camille Rose is influenced by the greats – Amy Winehouse, Ella Fitzgerald and Dinah Washington among them – but in fusing their style with contemporary lyricism, she creates music that speaks to younger generations. See her live at Woolwich Works this Saturday, where you can sway along to her soulful sounds with a rum cocktail in hand, courtesy of the venue’s pop-up RumpyPumpy beach bar.

HOM: Can you tell us more about the music in this version of the show? I’m curious about the decision for David to double up as musical director and a core cast member…
DH: There’s something so charming about the notion of an ordinary local lad being thrown into a whirlwind of pirates, treasure and sailing the ocean. I think Jim is a perfect embodiment of the child in all of us, just longing for a bit more adventure. The ocean has always seemed to me like a blank canvas, holding endless possibilities. Any story set at sea has me hooked from the start.
HOM: You’re using a small cast of just four actors to bring to life the story. What can audiences expect from your production?
James Haddrell: I’ve always thought we should present a version of Treasure Island at Greenwich Theatre, as Greenwich has maritime adventure at the heart of its identity, but I’ve never had the chance before and never found an adaptation I liked enough. However, when I read this version by Le Navet Bete and John Nicholson I knew it was the one for us.
A multi-rolling cast of just four are telling the story of orphaned teenager Jim Hawkins, who gets swept up in a band of pirates, and they’ll be singing shanties, pop songs and original numbers along the way.
HOM: What is it about the story of Treasure Island that makes it so enduringly popular?
DH: We’re also making sure every song fits the moment in which it comes, so that it doesn’t feel out of place. Also, whether it be a classic song that the audience will already know, or a brand new one that we’ve written for the show, we want each piece of music to feel familiar to our audience. If people leave humming the tunes they didn’t know as well as the ones they did, we know we’ll have done our jobs properly!
Holly O’Mahony: What led you to choose Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic story Treasure Island as your family show for summer 2022?
JH: Kids’ Week has been running for years, and over time the initiative, which is run by the Society Of London Theatres (SOLT), has grown and grown, now running for the whole of August each year. For participating shows, children and young people aged 17 and under can Pantomimes and family-friendly musicals are often the reserve of Christmas programming – a time when relatives of all ages can congregate for a night out together. That was the case before the pandemic, anyway. Two winters of lockdowns meant Greenwich Theatre had to run its pre-organised Christmas shows, Pinocchio and The Wolves Of Willoughby Chase, in summer to make up for lost footfall. There was a silver lining: realising there was just as much appetite for musical silliness in summer, artistic director James Haddrell has programmed a production of Treasure Island to run this August during the summer holidays.
Holly O’Mahony speaks to James Haddrell and the show’s musical director-cum-cast member David Haller to find out more…
JH: I agree. I think the idea of an ordinary, bored teenager being swept up in a lifechanging adventure is always appealing, from Harry Potter to The Chronicles of Narnia or The Neverending Story (which, incidentally, is something I’d love to stage one day!). We’d all like to believe that we’re braver, cleverer or luckier than we really are, that there’s more to our lives than we realise. We also all love an anti-hero, from Jack Sparrow to Deadpool or Randle McMurphy, and Long John Silver surely has to top that list. HOM: You’re taking part in Kids’ Week this year, meaning kids can see Treasure Island for free if accompanied by a paying adult. How does this work?
JH: This production is full of love for the original story of the cabin boy Jim Hawkins and his adventures with Long John Silver, but it isn’t afraid to be completely silly. We have a brilliant cast of just four actors playing about 30 characters, with David doubling as both Jim Hawkins and our musical director. It’s a madcap retelling, full of farce, daft jokes and physical comedy, which will absolutely appeal to fans of our Christmas pantomimes. I can’t remember ever laughing so much in rehearsals for a show! David Haller: This is a show full of larger-than-life characters, catchy musical numbers both old and new, and it’ll genuinely offer a laugh a minute. Audiences should expect nothing less than absolute piratical silliness.
Greenwich Theatre sets sail for Treasure Island
Ahoy, Me Hearties!
JH: We’ve taken the unusual decision to cast our musical director as Jim Hawkins himself. I’ve never seen that done before, so it means Jim’s world is completely musical throughout. He underscores his own adventure on the piano, the accordion and more, but we do have music played by the rest of the cast as well, from original songs to pop hits and a host of musical jokes.
HOM: You’ve mentioned your Treasure Island will be popular with fans of panto. You actually had to run a panto season in summer previously because the pandemic shut down the theatre in winter. Given its success, could summer panto season be a new trend?
JH: Yes, absolutely. The key to a successful panto is creating a show that genuinely appeals to all the family, not just to children, and presenting it at a time when families are all available – off work, off school, and keen to celebrate together. Summer holidays occupy a similar place in annual family traditions to Christmas, with parents taking time off work to be with their kids when schools break up, so incorporating a show into that summer tradition makes complete sense. With last year’s production of Pinocchio and this year’s Treasure Island, that’s certainly something we’re aiming for… Treasure Island is showing at Greenwich Theatre, Crooms Hill, London SE10 8ES. August 19 - September 4, performance times vary. Admission: £25. Suitable for ages 6+. org.uk/events/treasure-island/www.greenwichtheatre.

Called Routine, the experience combines film and sound, and is the work of London-based artists Ben Cullen and GAIKA.

During his time with the Advanced Centre, he played in games and took part in regular coaching sessions at Charlton Athletic’s Training Ground.
During his trial he took part in games against Arsenal and Chelsea’s Academy teams and scored goals in both games. Unfortunately, Jake also injured his ankle ligaments during his trial.
After spending two years developing his football skills within the Advanced Centre, Jake consistently impressed his coaches in matches against local private academies including the Charlton Athletic Academy.
Charlton Athletic physios were able to provide him with a recovery plan to get himself back on the pitch and after 4-5 weeks he was ready to start playing again. Jake continued his trial following his recovery and received the exciting news that he passed his trial, becoming the latest recruit to the Academy teams. Jake’s dad, Patrick Maloney, said: “The training regime at CACT is structured and without pressure which is important for children’s development and Jake looked forward to his training sessions every week at the Advanced Centre. “The coaches helped him to improve his game in a friendly and professional manner and Jake could see other players progress through the system which was encouraging. “During his trial he got injured and CAFC physios gave him the same level of attention as they did to their other players which made me feel comfortable as a parent that he was in the right place. I feel confident that Jake is in the best place to help with his progression.”
Jake Maloney came along to Charlton Athletic Community Trust’s (CACT’s) Advanced Centre after being released from the U8 Pre-Academy group.
Jake’s talents landed him a place in the Charlton Athletic Academy where he will continue with his development.
Jake was offered a trial for the academy after four members of staff spotted his talent including CACT’s Senior Football & Sports Development Coach, Bradley Marshall.

Bradley Marshall said: “As you can imagine, Jake was very disappointed to be released from the pre-academy at u8. He came in to the Advanced Centre and settled in well but during his time with us over the last 9 months he has developed all areas of his game. “The games he played against the academy were very good which resulted in him receiving an 8 week trial. I know during his 8 week trial he scored goals against Arsenal and Chelsea then unfortunately got injured, it was great to see him bounce back, finish off the trial and sign the contract, we are all pleased for him!’’ Join CACT for six week of football fun this summer with holiday courses running across Greenwich, Bexley and Kent.

Even today it is – well - small. Some people live there and there is one tiny settlement. It doesn’t actually look too bad a place built along the shore line and it has at least one grand(ish) building but there is no Google Street View, partly, of course, because there seems to be a definite lack of streets. In fact I would recommend a good look via Google at some of these romamtic destinations of our seafaring past. Bantam – which gets many mentions and where the East India Company’s Trades Increase first ship was lost – isn’t even marked as a place name and seems to be one of a number of pleasant but unimpressive coastal areas to the east of Jarkarta.
Of course in the 17th century those who survived were enriched – but at great personal risk. But the most profit was made by those who funded the voyages and stayed at home.
On the long sea voyages – apart from the usual dangers – there was scurvy and infectious disease. The only places they could anchor and come ashore were often dangerous and unhealthy marshy areas. Local populations were unimpressed and unfriendly – or – worse - hostile and organised. One account I read is about the Company’s early pride and boasts about gaining the allegiance of the ‘spice island’ Run, in the Banda Islands. With some difficulty you can find it today on Google Maps.
Also, before I get any further, I must explain that I have had considerable difficulty in finding anything out about this Creekside East India site. Almost every history I have looked at talks about the early works at Stone Wharf and then moves on to the more famous Blackwall site – missing out the second site in Deptford. I understand that there was a major archaeological dig there in 1997 with 20 archaeologists working on it. Normally there are reports on The last group of sites for me to write about on this trip up and down Deptford Creek is those on the West Bank immediately adjacent to the Thames. This is quite a large area, which was ultimately the site for General Steam Navigation and is now part of the site of a very large housing estate, or ‘development’ as it prefers to call itself -originally New Millennium Quay...
In 1614 Church Marsh was leased by Bridge House to the very new East India Company. It was their second site, the first having been a short distance to the west at what is now called Payne’s Wharf, but was then known as Stone Wharf. I wrote about this in Weekender in November 2019 and repeated it in my book on the Greenwich Riverside Upper Watergate to Angerstein. There is however a degree of overlap and confusion between these two sites. And… before people start moaning at me for writing about the East India Company… can I point out that was the start and long before their days as rulers of India with their own army and a reputation as major exploiters. In these early days they were sending out ships on what were effectively voyages of exploration to try and set up trading arrangements with places in the East Indies, the Far East and elsewhere in order to acquire supplies of spices and other ‘exotic’ items. I’ve been reading about some of these voyages and would recommend them to anyone who thinks this was the romantic days of sail. What is astonishing is the enormous numbers of men who went out on these ships who never came back. A majority of those who went died – of disease, warfare, starvation and many in captivity or by execution. They were visiting ports and coastal areas where there were local rulers and merchants of great wealth and sophistication with existing trading networks. To them the English ships were just an irritant and who, if they were ever interested at all, were playing them off against the Dutch adventurers.

CreeksideTheEastIndiasite
In the Middle Ages this area was called ‘Church Marsh’ and was in the ownership of Bridge House Estates - the wealthy City of London body which funds and controls Thames bridges in the area of the City. Excavations here showed that there was a pre-13th century river embankment with some later structural repairs. However most of the riverside in this area is along the Thames and I am trying to look at the bans of the Creek, something which is not going to be easy.
HistoryHistory
There are some famous views which claim to be of the East India Company shipyard in production. One, ‘East India Company Ships at Deptford’, is the subject of several web pages (for i.e. buildingdatedwellwhatshipthen,afteroutrmgc-object-13352)rmg.co.uk/collections/objects/https://www.wheretheypointthatthedateofthepaintingistheclosureoftheyardandveryimpressively,detaileveryinthepaintinganddescribeitisdoingthere.Anotherknownsketchapparently1840showsanimpressivewithalittlebelltower.
In my articles and book on this site in my accounts of the Greenwich riverside I covered many of the later users of the dry dock and slips in detail. All of them let out onto the Thames rather than the Creek. Working out which of the many ship builders and repairers were on the Creek frontage of the site is not going to be easy.
these digs easily downloadable – but the only place I can find it is via a commercial site who want £££££ for a time limited download and also I can find no one will admit having a copy. Why? What is in it that it needs to be so carefully guarded?
There are some sketchy descriptions of what was found in the archaeological dig on site in the book ‘Deptford Creek, Surviving Regeneration’ edited by Jess Steele and published by Deptford Forum Publishing in 1999. It tells us something about what was on site but not where it was or what exactly they found in the way of evidence to prove that that was what was there. From what they say was found it looks very much as if the site was intended not so much for building ships as for fitting them out and for supplying them for a voyage and for doing any necessary repairs on a return from a voyage. First of all they built a dry dock and building slips. These were built to let out onto the Thames rather than the Creek and are shown on the 1623 ‘Evelyn’ map of Deptford. They survived, albeit rebuilt, until replaced by extensions to Deptford Power Station in the 20th century. I guess that dry docks then, as now, are expensive to build and they indicate some ambition for the site. Between 1610 and 1620 the East India Company are said to have built over 30 ships here with a workforce of 500. These were said to be the larger ships – the smaller stuff being built at the later, but increasingly important, Blackwall Yard. I am unable to find out what these ships built at Deptford were. The ships listed as having been built by Burrell are all warships built in the Royal Dockyard. I guess it is unlikely that any of the historians at the National Maritime Museum will read this, but if they do – I am sure they will all know what the ships built here were called, where they went and what happened to them. I understand that the ships which might have been built at this Deptford Wharf – rather than at Stone Wharf or the Royal Dockyard – might include the Company’s first two purpose built first ships - that is the Trades Increase, which came to a relatively tragic end and lies wrecked off Bantam, and the smaller Peppercorn. Peppercorn returned to England, losing another 19 sailors to disease on the return voyage.
The East India Company closed this Deptford Yard in 1643 to concentrate on the now famous Blackwall site. The facilities which were built at Deptford were used by other shipbuilders throughout almost 300 years and the construction of Deptford Power Station and General Steam Navigation’s use of the site. One slipway – greatly strengthened and altered – may have been used for coal deliveries to Deptford Power Station in the late 19th century.
What information I have found largely concerns the international search for suitable timber supplies – not relevant to this article on Creekside. In 1614 the East India Company’s second Deptford site was set up by one William Burrell, who had been appointed as ‘Master Shipwright’. He had previously been a shipbuilder with a site at Ratcliffe near Wapping. In 1614 Shakespeare is still alive, so let’s remember Burrell was setting up his major shipyard in doublet, hose and a big lace ruff, although his work on the site and sourcing timber supplies all sounds very organised and ‘modern’. From 1619 he was also Master Shipwright at Deptford Royal Dockyard which must have led to some complications. After this second appointment the East India Company raised his salary from £200 to £300 a year. He is said to have had a house on site in Deptford. He eventually fell out with the Company in 1626, resigned and died in 1630 after a trip to Portsmouth.
The Deptford site seems to have had a remit for repair and fitting out. On site was an iron foundry to make anchors and chains, a spinning house to make cordage, a slaughterhouse to kill animals and then facilities for salting and packing the meat. There were store houses for timber and canvas. There was also a gunpowder store isolated on the east side of the site nearest the creek. Excavations showed that in the 17th century a deep wharf had been provided to allow larger vessels to the dock edge and later in the 18th century a new river wall was built extending the dockyard out to the north by 10m. This must however have been on its Thameside frontage rather than the creek. Much of this work was done re-using old ships’ timbers and much of the surrounding debris was ship construction related – caulking hair, treenails, and so on. On the east side of the dockyard there was a rope yard in the 17th and 18th centuries which went from the Stowage to the Thames.

In 1649 it was leased to Peter Pett as the first of a succession of ship builders and repairers on this site. Clearly it is not easy to get right which Peter Pett this was – and I note various web pages trying to explain the differences between them. It is said that the Admiralty itself had difficulty with the family, with so many members as shipwrights and all with the same first names.
There was more than one Peter Pett around in 1649, but I assume that whichever it was worked as a shipwright. If so the old East India Company yard was used by then either for private work or as an extension to whatever prestigious post they held in the royal dockyards.
