St Matthew Academy
Went to the Boone Chapel, and the ice house, as a result of this article. Enjoyed both very much
Excellent, glad they were worth the visit.
Manor House Gardens was something of a revelation. Tucked away but full of people enjoying themselves, excellent cafe and the prospect of a revived library in the future.
Top park!
Lewisham has some top rate features, its a pity more isn’t made of them (maybe it is but publicity is poor – or not reaching me – I would have loved the Chas and Dave experience at Cornmill gardens a weekend or two ago – but where was the publicity!)
Yes, there are some very lovely parks in the borough. Have you ever been to Beckenham Place Park? That’s worth a visit.
I don’t know why you hadn’t heard about the Country Fayre at Cornmill Gardens. I’m pretty sure we had a flyer through the door.
