Deptford in Greenwich?
I don't think any of the past Metropolitan Borough of Deptford became part of the London Borough of Greenwich as this article says. The other articles (London Borough of Lewisham, London Borough of Greenwich, and Metropolitan Borough of Deptford, do not contain this statement. On the maps the boarders to me look close to an exact match, as if the whole of the Metropolitan Borough of Deptford is now in London Borough of Lewisham. If any area is now in Greenwich it must be a tiny part. Carlwev (talk) 14:13, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Also there is a source marked by the statement but the source also says that the Metropolitan Borough of Deptford became part of the London Borough of Lewisham but not the London Borough of Greenwich, contrary to the statement it is sourcing. I am therefore deleting it. Carlwev (talk) 14:18, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi, if you see this. I think it explains the discrepancy. The Deptford Royal Docks were originally included in LB Greenwich - but were transferred to LB Lewisham in 1996 as a boundary adjustment. It is ref'd here. How this is phrased in text, or indeed a detail that is required, is another matter. HTH Kbthompson (talk) 15:05, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, also dealt with in the 'Geography' section in more detail, with that very statutory instrument ref'd there. Kbthompson (talk) 15:15, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
