	Metropolitan Borough of Deptford - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The borough covered the same area of the parish of St Paul Deptford, which had been separated from the neighbouring parish of St Nicholas Deptford to its north in 1730.
		When the Metropolitan Borough was created, consideration was given to reuniting the two parishes, but a closer equalisation of rateable value was served by uniting St Nicholas with Greenwich to the east.
		The growth of the London conurbation had reached Deptford by the end of the eighteenth century but it had been a large industrial town well before this time: the Royal Docks and the Victualling Yard, which provisioned the Navy, and the various private dockyards, meant it was a prosperous and cosmopolitan town.

	London Borough of Lewisham
		The huge growth of the population in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, based economically on the expansion of the Royal Dockyard, the Victualling Yard, which provisioned the Navy, and the various private dockyards, led to the building of the new church of St Paul, one of the Queen Anne churches.
		This would have been a good moment to reunite the two Deptford parishes, but because the population of Greenwich was below the average it was decided to add St Nicholas to Greenwich to bring the borough totals closer to equality.
		The present London Borough of Lewisham was created in 1965, by the amalgamation of the Metropolitan Boroughs of Lewisham and Deptford.
