Lewisham’s Man and Van

Finding everything you want in a place to live in one location can be a difficult challenge. There can be so many things you want to make the area around your home perfect for you that it can mean you have a tough search ahead. However, this pursuit can be made easy because the London region has so much to offer. There are many great postcode areas to take a look at, including the SE13 district.  

SE13 is one of the many smaller areas within the larger South Eastern postcode region. There are twenty-eight of these subsections that range from SE1 to SE28, as well as SE1P code that is used for direct marketing rather than representing it's own specific location. There new areas were introduced from 1917 onwards so that  mail delivery and the information on street signs could be improved and transportation and navigation could be made easier and more precise. The SE code was created in 1857.   

Lewisham, Hither Green and Ladywell use the SE13 code and are found within the Boroughs of Lewisham and Greenwich, using the post town address of LONDON. SE13 is close by to the SE3, SE4, SE6, SE8, and SE10 postcode areas that home such places as Blackheath, Catford, Hither Green, Brockley, Honor Oak Park, Deptford, Greenwich and more.

The most expensive housing in the area is found in St. Austell Road.
