The Green Green Grass of Telegraph Hill
The Telegraph Hill area of New Cross is known for its big gardens, parks and general green-fingered enthusiasm. Interesting then that some locals have taken their horticultural skills indoors. According to a report at This is London today, 'A property in Telegraph Hill, New Cross, was recently raided by Lewisham Police and found to contain 20 fully grown cannabis plants. Officers seized the plants and spoke with the landlord who had no idea the tenants had caused £2,500 worth of damage by using the flat as a drug factory'.
