I think the toilets were closed initially to reduce the amount of time spent in parks and also to stop cross-contamination from touching doors, handles and taps.


Now that the rules have changed and people can spend longer than an hour in the park, reopening toilets with the caveat 'Covid 19 can stay on hard surfaces for three days', makes sense.

People are travelling unnecessarily because they can....saw about 10 cars outside the Alleyn's field today and there were loads of people in there- no toilets there and it stinks around the edge where there are peoples' garden gates....disgusting and unnecessary.

Alleyn's is my nearest open space but can't be used really just for walking around.

The toilets in Dulwich Park were always pretty dire but hope Southwark Council can now realise that most parks/public places need suitable toilets and give them a bit of a make-over!


There used to be so many public toilets in Southwark parks.


Then again I can remember visiting the public toilets that used to be in Camberwell in the 1970s/1980s.

Yes they were something else, Stained glass, polished brass and spotless with a man in his room who took no nonsense.


A real joy to visit. In fact the toilets island in the 70/80 was a real meeting social hub when you went out for the night not for the reason that spring to mind today.


What do we have today a silver tube on the pavement/park.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway. 
    • Lots of lovely lilac shrubs in flower at the moment. Would anyone consider giving me a cutting? It would involve digging out a basal off shoot, roots and all. I'd love one for my new garden but I'm so broke that I have to fill it with plants the slow way!
    • You are welcome to have mine for free. I was just about to post! Three panels - 6ft by 5ft - weathered/natural on one side and painted brown on the other.
