No they certainly have not. Now 6 caravans in the front of the car park and multiple loads of rubbish being dumped in the back of the car park. Can only assume they will continue the convoy of small trucks in and out to dump sofas, baths, rubble and whatever else they have. Whose idea was it to remove the concrete blocks that were in place to stop this from happening? This was destined to happen from the moment they were removed! The only surprising thing is it has taken so long.
I believe the land is still governed by a lease from Dulwich Estates to the company that were running the pub before the fire so would it not be for that company to take action regarding eviction etc? They don't seem the slightest bit interested in the property so they could well do nothing.

The concrete blocks have been replaced with locked gates, haven't they?


And I thought the car park was being used as a holding space for school buses so that they didn't obstruct local streets?


There is a thread on this somewhere.


So how did the caravans get in?

I think I recall from the old days of Greenham protests etc that you have to actually enter a physical structure to be breaking and entering, if you just "break in" to open land it's only trespass.

At least we can get our driveways tarmaced in the meantime.


Joking aside, are the local councillors and Dulwich Estate aware? If we can't change a porch, I don't see why these 'caravaners' have carte blanche. It is, however, a damning testament of the utter ruin that the pub has been left in for too many years. Are the Dulwich Estate and local authority even aware of the 'broken window' theory when it comes to neighbourhood decay?

If it's poss for you to take photos ( of rubbish being dumped ,people ,reg plates ) without drawing attention to yourself then it might be more productive to supply these to Southwark/police than posting on here .

I have reported fly tipping to southwark council - but because it is in a carpark of an unused pub I am not sure will they be able to remove the rubbish. and I have tried to contact the police also.

Further rubbish was dumped ~30 mins ago. I tried to take a photo - but did not get the registration as I was too far away.

    • Just a review for Andy. I have now used him for various jobs for 5 years or so. An absolute and complete star. Always goes above and beyond, never cuts a corner, and always prices incredibly fairly. If you need a handyman...he is your man. Could not recommend more highly.
    • Don’t know about cafes but the Victoria and Montpelier pubs always have always encouraged people working during the day.
    • Thank you Saied for the amazing work! I will see you in a few months.
    • If you care about the decline in the swift population please support the lovely Hannah Bourne-Taylor in her campaign to mandate 'swift bricks' in all new properties   From her website: What are swift bricks? Zero maintenance and sustainable, swift bricks are bricks that sit flush to the wall that provide a cavity nesting habitat for swifts and other cavity nesting birds. Surveys show species include House martins, starlings, House sparrows, nuthatch, blue tit, coal tit and wren. Why swift bricks are urgently and uniquely essential Without swift bricks there is no guaranteed nesting habitat for birds reliant on building cavities anywhere in the UK – and there never will be. We are inadvertently destroying their oldcavity nesting sites through renovation, demolition and insulation, while climate mitigation measures mean modern buildings will never provide natural homes for birds. https://hannahbournetaylor.com/ Don't be such a pompous bore. She is doing something to improve the world around us, what does it matter what social class she is from? The despicable Michael Gove offered support then did nothing. The current government, despite supposed concern for the environment, also failed to support the campaign. She took the trouble to write back to me when I asked a question. But carry on poking fun at honourable people while our surroundings decay.
