Damp & Mould in Lewisham’s Housing Stock
Lewisham is quintessential south-east London terrace country — Victorian and Edwardian streets from Deptford and Brockley to Forest Hill and Sydenham, heavily converted into flats — alongside a substantial post-war council legacy around Catford and Downham's inter-war cottage estate. The conversion flats carry the standard solid-wall condensation profile; Sydenham and Forest Hill's steep slopes add hillside basement damp; and the inter-war Downham stock brings aging-fabric penetration issues.
