About Pollen in Lewisham

Lewisham’s allergy season commences early spring (March-May) with dominant Birch and Oak pollen, originating from mature trees in Blackheath, Greenwich Park, and along the Ravensbourne River corridor; summer (May-July) peaks with Grass pollen, prevalent in Ladywell Fields, Hilly Fields, and other urban green spaces. Lewisham’s urban topography and varied parklands can localise pollen concentrations. Autumn (September-November) brings elevated Mould spores, primarily from damp leaf litter and decomposing organic matter in shaded, poorly drained areas.

The pollen count in Lewisham today is HIGH, driven mainly by Giant Ragweed.
