About

Lee Green sits in the southeast London borough of Lewisham, bordered by areas like Blackheath and Hither Green. Its residential streets are characterised by a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, alongside interwar semis and modern apartment developments. The ward is anchored by the Lee Green Conservation Area, which preserves the historic village core around the old manor house site. Local commerce is focused along Lee High Road, providing essential shops and services for the community.

The area's large, central feature is the expansive Manor House Gardens, a public park with formal gardens, a cafe, and sports facilities. This green space is a key community hub. The area is also defined by its major road junctions, particularly the large roundabout at the 'Green' itself, which channels significant traffic. The presence of several schools, including the former Haberdashers' Aske's site, contributes to its settled, neighbourhood feel.
