I had ones like that near the skirting board and also on the wall when I lived in a Victorian terrace. Gas guy said they were from when the house had gas lamps none were connected any longer.

Any recommendations? Are you attending a really good class you don't mind sharing? Doesn't have to be evening!

Please contact Polly directly on the number above to see if she's available when you need - my post is just a recommendation but am happy to provide a reference! Thanks

Aria is an all around good guy. He did a fantastic job on our bathroom, charged an honest price, and always showed up when he said he would. Despite a few hiccups with the process he always did his best to keep things on track and makes sure we were satisfied with the outcome.

Jason and his team do an amazing job - on time, skilled and very communicative. They worked long days and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Would highly recommend Jason - we’ll be booking him in again!

I'm posting a recommendation for our home cleaner Polly Polly has been cleaning for us (near Lordship Lane), together with her partner Steven for the last 8+ years and they are excellent - efficient, careful, trustworthy and effective. They now have a few spare slots on Fridays now as clients have moved away from the area. Please contact Polly directly on 07727 042636 if you're thinking of getting a cleaner! Or if you want to hear any more from me then do feel free to DM! Thanks

its based on the income the [to be x] freeholder will lose - ie the ground rent and any service charges. Unless D Estate follows different laws to everybody else.

Hi everyone. I’m currently in the process of buying a house on the Dulwich Estate with ~86 years left on the lease. I’ve found it quite hard to get clear information online about the realistic cost of buying the freehold from the Dulwich Estate. I was wondering if anyone here has experience dealing with the Dulwich Estate and, if so, roughly how much it cost to purchase the freehold. I know it will vary depending on the property, but even a ballpark figure would be really helpful so we can decide whether the purchase makes sense for us. Thanks very much in advance.

It looks like a tap for the gas lighting that used to be found in those homes. The little tap would regulate the flow of gas to give a brighter or dimmer lamp. It's probably not part of any gas feed now and you can check that for yourself by following the gas pipework from your meter (which should only run to the kitchen to supply a boiler and cooker). Next time you have your boiler serviced, ask the engineer to have a look for you.

Hallelujah! The penny finally drops! And this very much part of the game...get a Dr. of something to do it and the masses will believe it is impartial. The drugs and FMCG industries had a big problem with this in the 2000s....many of them commissioned research from "rent a result" Dr's from Russia who would tell you what you wanted to hear for the right price.
