Hi there


Archdale Road isn't closed on a Saturday, it's just that North Cross Road is blocked at the junction with Lordship Lane, so you'd have to approach from a different road (Frogley Road if you're coming off Lordship Lane). It will be very busy from 9.30am ish onwards & if you double park, it's quite likely that you'll get a ticket. Best to try and leave your car/a friend's car there from the day/evening before and then move it when the lorry arrives. Both Archdale and Nutfield are open to traffic - from Nutfield down to the Palmerston the road is closed to traffic until late afternoon.

I hope that helps, PM me if you have any questions & welcome to Archdale Road!

When we moved here (not on a Saturday) we asked the council about reserving a space for the lorry, but they told us that they cant do anything on streets where parking is unrestricted.

We took their advice and "bagged" the necessary space by using our own car, a couple of traffic cones, and the wheelie bins.

Yes, I had the same experience. Funny how they seem to be able to restrict parking without any problem when it suits them (road resurfacing, tree lopping etc) - they say they can't, but what they really mean is won't. Fortunately what with a bit of bin placement and accommodating neighbours who moved cars for me I was ok.

Oh, I forgot to mention the lovely neighbours who moved their cars for us!

We tucked a message under the windscreen wipers of a couple of cars, asking them to ring us if they were going to move their cars so that we could put a wheelie bin in the space. And both of them did - a lovely welcome to the area!

    • They also collect near Bond Street station near Oxford Circus. Always same guys.
    • Paul's on lordship lane is a good place for garden plants.  He is based near the old harvester on the opposite side of the road he offers good advice on which plants will grow in different positions etc.  
    • I've read this thread and made notes! So many useful tips! Would anyone have a recommendation for  a place that sells good quality topsoil that would also be able to drop from a tipper? 10 cubic meters minimum. Thanks in advance and any further advice on garden centres with good selection of shrubs/climbers would be welcome, I plan to visit them all. Garden is fully dug up with drainage just put in. 
    • I reccomend Crab Salad-I used to have my hair cut by the owner when he was at Blue tit in Peckham...I moved with him to Cs when he opened it. I've had other stylists there when he was'nt available on the date I could make and they're all excellent. Its a nice vibe too-just very relaxed not too 'hairdressery' (If you know what I mean) and I've reccomended it to neighbours and colleages who've all been very happy. Its not the cheapest but nor is it super pricey and they use good products too.
