above the shops

Thanks so much for sharing, I don't why I didn't find it. It's really useful to see. Not happy about the size and scale but at least there's permission for it.

The red steels are the new roof going on, and it is significantly higher / larger than the old one. And even if the height is the same the current house frontage, this is right up to the back property wall. which is not really the same thing.

There is finally some building movement in the old Brick House site. But it's of a slightly alarming nature. Over the past week they have ripped off the existing roof and erected much a larger steel frame. This is completely blocking our view of greenery and gardens. And is a bit odd as a commercial structure that is now going to tower over the residential back gardens of properties in Zenoria Street, Oxonian Street and East Dulwich Grove. I've looked at length this morning on the Southwark planning portal, but the only planning applications I can find on this site are for the change from A1 to A3, and for the extension to opening hours. There doesn't appear to be an application for this building work, which surely must require it. Does anyone have experience here? Or able to advise on what we should / could do about it. I'm not against Gail's moving in per se, but this is worrying - and at the absolute mininum we should be able to see what the plans are for I think.

Hi Bookshake Your attachement opens up as symbols on my machine. Could you attach the copy? I've just been fined for driving through there on Bank Holiday Monday, which surely is pushing it even for them! Thanks

Fede has been cutting my hair, and my son's for the last 8 years. He's great! There is something nice about having your hair cut at home even in normal circumstances...

I wonder if there's the possibility of a new strand of Covid Classifieds. With suggested instructions for handovers / safe distances during exchange. We are new at working from home AND home schooling and find ourselves missing equipment that I can't really afford right now... the EDF would have previously been the 1st place I'd have tried to find things. Maybe there's a safe way to do it?

I wanted to add another to the long list of thank you's to James... I've always felt represented by a councillor that had a very protective view of East Dulwich and its residents. The long-term view that you and Rosie have held in terms of planning and protection of our high street particularly resonated with me as I live on it. You've always had a highly visible presence, both online and on the street. Hope that you enjoy a lovely calm summer! Thank you for everything you've done for us. Norma

Hi Liz, Can I check if this info is still current as the link to your website didn't seem to work? Thanks Norma

Dropped purse on way from Lordship Lane to Il Mirto last night - around 9pm. (Route on Grove Lane / Melbourne Grove / bottom of Lordship Lane. Contained 3 x credit cards and a Nectar... and lots of cash. Would really just like the purse back as it was a gift! Please mail me if you have kindly find it...

ssssssssshhhh! Beckenham is very busy! Don't want more people playing there! Just kidding, it's a lovely course, about 10 times more interesting than Dulwich, and although it gets a battering from new golfers during the summer and suffers from Lewisham Councils budget constraints it's also one of the most beautiful courses in South London. The views of the park and the crumbling mansion from all around the course are stunning and there are only a couple of holes where you can hear any road noise! Can you tell that I like it there? P.S. I hear on the grapevine that Addington Palace have quietly dropped their joining fee recently as well...

They jimmied into the seat of mine a couple of months ago and stole the battery! What's that all about? B******s!

Having had my moped stolen a couple of weeks ago from Zenoria Street (I believe 2 more were taken on the same night) I was wondering if anyone would know where to start with requesting a motorcycle stand / bay to lock bikes to (the same as the one outside the Palmerston). There are 4/5 bikes parked in Zenoria street regularly and I'm sure that we would all use it. Once they have had one successful nights thievery they will be back!

Immediate neighbours are indeed please. The issue with the air-conditioning units has been going on for 18 months for us. And assuming that they do actually remove them we will be delighted! Thanks to the 3 local councillors who have been supportive over the entire issue from the start!
