Can't see it opening in July.


When the kids from Heber interviewed the builders in December 2015, they were told the build was expected to take 44 weeks and should be finished in July 2016. Andrew Wicks of Southwark planning was also interviewed and said that with store fitting, they were expecting the new store to open before Christmas 2016.


M&S still aren't recruiting, though Dulwich is now listed on the M&S website as a new store opening.

Mick.. I've said this before. but when I moved here in 1980 from Peckham people would ask where have you moved to.


I would say Dulwich and they would reply.. No. You live in EAST Dulwich NOT Dulwich..


Now.. People say.. Do you live in EAST Dulwich ?


I just say.. I live in EAST Dulwich.. BUT I was Born in PECKHAM..

When I moved to East Dulwich people tried to tell me I had moved to Peckham. No shame in that now, it's all cool.


I think East Dulwich is no longer the poor relation of Dulwich, such that when people hear Dulwich, they maybe think of East Dulwich.... the popular part.


Or perhaps the stores are effectively merging the two areas into one. Let's face it no one has a Dulwich store anyway, there is no street... so LL is I guess Dulwich's main shopping area.

I think you are right-- they are marketing to the wider area and loads of Dulwich Village people hang out on LL. There isn;t the same price difference there used to be between the areas either when looking at equal sized properties so its much of a muchness now I suppose.

I've always thought that Dulwich was the whole area protected by the Dulwich College Estate rules and regulations as regards buildings and development. Unfortunately, East Dulwich is not protected by any such rules so there are carbuncles (you may call them extensions...) appearing all over the Victorian houses.

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
