04.The arrival of Crossrail to near-by abbey wood station has lead to theplanned mass re-development of the area, leading to the removal ofmany of these existing places of local discourse and social capital (figure2). In this case, the residents of Thamesmead use digital spaces, such asclosed and highly active Facebook groups. The Thamesmead all stagesSE28 group - which describes itself as ‘a place for all your photo’s,memories, adverts for local services, fun days etc’ 2 (figure 3) - allowslocal people voices and opinion to gather and organise themselves toface the private powers purchasing and changing their local area.In this scenario the digital space has grown from, and is dependenton, a common physical place: the digital has been forced to act as asubstitute for the lost physical space. The energy of the Thamesmeadall stages SE28 group is focused on preserving and re-instating localplace. In this instance, the community has found a safe digital place onthe internet to exercise a certain level of agency and autonomy._2. “Thamesmead all stages SE28”, Facebook, January 30, 2018. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ThamesmeadSE28/25
