St John's is a small residential area in the London Borough of Lewisham in south east London. It covers an area of approximately 0.2 square kilometers (less than 0.1 square miles) around St Johns railway station, and is approximately equidistant from the centres of Greenwich and Lewisham. The border between the London Boroughs of Lewisham and Greenwich skirts the north-eastern edge of the area. St John's is noted for its late 19th-Century housing, constructed as the Deptford New Town, and protected as the Brookmill Road and St John's Conservation Areas since 1972 and 1976 respectively. It was also the site in 1957 of one of Britain's worst railway disasters.

Note that St John's most correctly refers to the Parish of St John, as still indicated on maps of the area. The parish church lies at the top of the hill, almost adjacent to the railway station which borrowed its name. However, in common with much of modern London, the name has nowadays devolved onto the area immediately surrounding the railway station, leaving the church lying at the southern tip of the area, and most of the residents in the south of the parish associating themselves with New Cross or Lewisham.

Deptford New Town was conceived by the Lucas family as an affordable and spacious alternative for the working classes of mid to late 19th century Deptford. Originally from Cumbria, the family made their wealth in South Carolina, where they built and managed water-powered rice mills. St John's station opened in 1871, at a time when housing construction was still in full swing.

The Brookmill Road Conservation Area was designated in 1972, and is bordered by Friendly Street, Brookmill Road, the southern and eastern boundaries of the properties on Albyn Road, and the railway line. The St John's Conservation Area, created four years later, covers the area between this and the Lewisham Way. Both areas are further subject to an Article 4 Direction, preserving the character of the area by prohibiting many kinds of external alterations.

The population of the area is extremely mixed, largely reflecting the huge rise in property prices in recent years. A few houses are council owned, some are let, and most are owner-occupied. In the five years surrounding the arrival of the Docklands Light Railway at Deptford Bridge, house prices in the area quadrupled. This resulted in an unusual mix of wealthy city folk commuting to Canary Wharf and less well-off people who had lived in the area for some time.

The area is compact, well-delineated, and protected from excessive development. However it is surrounded by very varied areas.

Greenwich lies to the north, and is rapidly spreading south to fill the under-utilised space along Greenwich High Road, as expensive housing developments are constructed. Greenwich is a tourist hotspot and a centre for entertainment and dining. To the east, but not immediately acessible due to the River Ravensbourne, is Blackheath, a genteel, pretty, and even more sought-after suburb. To the south lies Lewisham, with a shopping centre dissected by major roads, and a hub for public transportation in the form of light rail, heavy rail and bus services. To the north and west lies Deptford, an old-fashioned yet vibrant area including, according to BBC News Online, London's best shopping street.
