Broadband Coverage in Lewisham East

Lewisham East is a Westminster constituency in England covering 51,126 premises. 99.5% of premises have superfast (30 Mbit/s or more) broadband and 91.1% reach ultrafast (300 Mbit/s or more); underpinning both is a full-fibre figure of 72.1%, broadly in line with national trends, and a gigabit-capable figure of 90.0% once cable upgrades are counted.

On connectivity for all households, the USO gap in Lewisham East is effectively closed, less than 1% of premises fail to reach the 10 Mbit/s baseline. Ofcom tends to raise its speed-tier bars as networks improve, so today's ultrafast line will likely move.

Where these figures come from

Figures are drawn from Ofcom's Connected Nations 2025 report (July 2025, r01), which aggregates postcode-sector data to constituency level. They represent coverage availability from at least one network operator, not the proportion of households that have subscribed to a given speed tier, nor the typical or guaranteed speeds that customers actually receive.
