  • Deptford is a district of south London, England, located on the south bank of the River Thames. It is named after a ford of the River Ravensbourne, and from the mid 16th century to the late 19th was home to Deptford Dockyard, the first of the Royal Dockyards. This was a major shipbuilding dock and attracted Peter the Great to come and study shipbuilding. Deptford and the docks are associated with the knighting of Sir Francis Drake by Queen Elizabeth I aboard the Golden Hind, the legend of Sir Walter Raleigh laying down his cape for Elizabeth, Captain James Cook's third voyage aboard Resolution, and the mysterious murder of Christopher Marlowe in a house along Deptford Strand. Though Deptford began as two small communities, one at the ford, and the other a fishing village on The Thames, Deptford's history and population has been mainly associated with the docks established by Henry VIII. The two communities grew together and flourished while the docks were the main administrative centre of the British Navy, and a few grand houses like Sayes Court, home to diarist John Evelyn, and Stone House on Lewisham Way were erected. The area declined as first the Royal Navy moved out, and then the commercial docks themselves declined until the last dock, Convoys Wharf, closed in 2000. A Metropolitan Borough of Deptford was formed in 1900; then, in 1965, the area became part of the newly created London Borough of Lewisham to which it still belongs.

  • Deptford er et område i Greenwich og Lewisham (distrikt) i London. Det ligger på sørbredden av Themsen. Det nordøstlige hjørnet av området ligger i Greenwich, mens resten er i Lewisham. Grensen mellom bydelene går langs Watergate Street, Creek Road, Deptford Church Street, Bronze Street, Creekside og Copperas Street frem til Deptford Creek. Navnet betyr «dypt krysningssted», og kommer Deptford ligger ved stedet hvor veien mellom London og Dover og de andre kanalhavnene krysser elven Ravensbourne. Den delen av elven som påvirkes av tidevann kalles også Deptford Creek. Pilegrimsveien fra London til Canterbury krysser elven ved Deptford, og byen er nevnt i Geoffrey Chaucers Canterbury-fortellingene. Deptford tilhørte tidligere Kent, og ble så et distrikt i grevskapet London og til slutt en del av Lewisham og Greenwich da grevskapet Stor-London ble opprettet. Rådhuset og andre bygninger fra den tidligere lokalforvaltningen er bevart, men brukes til andre formål.
