<p>The Church of England, the Church Commissioners and the Diocese of Southwark have
no financial interest in the site of the former parish church of Christ Church, Deptford.</p><p>The
land was sold by the Church Commissioners in 1937. The parish of Christ Church was
merged with St Nicholas Church in 1936 to form the parish of St Nicholas with Christ
Church. Following significant bomb damage, the Christ Church buildings were demolished
in 1937 and the site sold to the London Borough of Lewisham. Housing and a school
building now occupy the majority of the site</p><p> </p><p>At the point of sale to
the Borough of Lewisham, the usual covenants were placed on a small section of the
property which formed the site of the former Church. This covenanted area is outside
of the area currently used as a wildlife garden and the school. The covenanted area
is to be found at the back of Frankham House. No restrictions were placed on the rest
of the property to the north of Reginald Road.</p>
