The building was demolished in 2010 and replaced with flats. Upon advice given by English Heritage the building was not considered to be of National significance as an example of 1930s architecture,due to the fact that the building had been remodelled in the 1980s. The company ceased trading at this property around 2009 having relocated to premises outside London. Back then the property was used as an office and factory by Adhesive Specialties Limited for the manufacture of specialist adhesive tapes.

All this served to enhance the character of the building.

In 1988, the building was given a make-over by its current owner which included the insertion of Crittal type windows with 1930s style glazing bars and the addition of Art Deco style parapet detailing and glazed ceramic tile string course. Its earliest recorded use was as a Laundry. ​The office building, situated beside the River Ravensbourne, with a largely single storey factory extending to the rear was constructed in the 1930s. A large 5-storey L-shaped building built in 1911 will be demolished. All but one of the derelict buildings will be restored. Plans have been submitted for nearly 500 homes at the former Siemens factory site. Many of the latter were used for light industrial and art studio purposes until recent years. Across the road a number of larger buildings constructed in the first half of the 20th Century are also derelict. A range of two and three storey buildings (the white ones) from the 1870-90s are derelict. Several buildings were damaged by bombs in World War II, including the oldest building of 1863-65. After these became obsolete, these Woolwich works in 1968 were closed and 6,000 employees lost their jobs bringing much hardship to the area particularly as the area's main employer the Royal Ordnance Factory closed the previous year In it's final years, the Woolwich factory principally produced telephone exchanges for the General Post Office. The principal works were here on the Woolwich/Charlton borders adjacent to what is now the Thames Barrier, a site covering 35 acres, where cables and light-current electrical apparatus were produced from 1863. Siemens Brothers and Company Limited was an electrical engineering design and manufacturing business. Some units are currently occupied by vehicle workshops and creative studios whilst the area is quite dilapidated awaiting it's fate in the hands of developers. The canal closed and was drained and filled in during the 1970s and Surrey Canal Road replaced the canal in this neck of the woods (See my guided walking tours for more information about the whole canal). On the site of the Excelsior there were Leather Cleaning Works in 1897 and later Plastic Mouldings Works in 1951. Then industrial and workshop spaces were built alongside the canal. Then in 1807 the Grand Surrey Canal cut through these fields. Historic maps dating from 1766 shows that until the early 19th century the site was part of a wider area of undeveloped open fields. Millwall FC's stadium is within the Development Area. The land is bounded by railway lines and bisected by Surrey Canal Road. In theory abandoned:building=* could be also used, but it is generally a poor idea as disused building is still a building.​This area forms part of wider plans named the Surrey Canal Triangle an area to the far NW of the Borough of Lewisham allocated for redevelopment. Or disused= yes (instead of abandoned= yes) to specify that a building is disused, but could be put back to use without significant repairs.īuilding:use= vacant or building:use= none or building:use= no was also proposed as a possible tagging.

Therefore use an appropriate building=* value, plus abandoned= yes if the building needs major repairs prior to reuse (for example, broken windows, leaking and damaged roof, etc). building= abandoned erases distinction between abandoned church, abandoned warehouse, abandoned barn and so on. Normally building=* is used to tag construction type, for example building= church is for any building constructed as a church, no matter how it is used currently. The tag building= abandoned is deprecated.

Under no circumstances should you (semi-)automatically change “deprecated” tags to something else in the database on a large scale without conforming to the automated edits code of conduct.

You are still free to continue to use or interpret this tag as you see fit since OpenStreetMap does not have “banned features”. The reason is documented in Deprecated features. The recommended replacement is: building=* + abandoned= yes. This feature has been labeled as deprecated.
