Tucked between the top end of Landells Road and Plough Lane is East Dulwich's quirkiest house. It's a narrow, detached* house that looks like it is sticking out of the back of Le Moulin restaurant. I guess few people even realise it is there. It seems to be an original Victorian house, and was derelict last year but clearly somebody bought it and has been doing it up. Anyone know anything about its history?


* as far as I can tell craning my neck over the fence.

Err, definitely not, I would NEVER redecorate my house like that, looks quite ridiculous, mind you isn't the phrase 'no accounting for taste'?? >:D<

Trinity, you and I obviously have EXQUISITE taste sweetie darlin wot wot wot. Unless they have painted the house pink pebble dash, put up lace nets, and installed 10 satellite dishes in the past week, then Pearcesa you have definitely seen the wrong house.

I sure do, although I don't think that is necessarily a good thing .. ! ;-)


The owners two 'yappy dogs' have not engraciated themselves with a number of the neighbours either!


Anyway, as long as the owners of No.5 are happy with the renovations - I guess that's all that matters! ;-)

    • When mine was stolen I tracked it to Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury's car park, where it sat for several hours, and then over to a phone shop on Rye Lane in Peckham. Police thought they likely stash them somewhere in the car park until they have a few to drop off. It's literal schoolkids, so even worse in the holidays.
    • Saw the aftermath of another phone theft on east dulwich grove by trio last night. Then half an hour later spotted them biking back to 'work'. Crazy the police can't do anything about this - they are clearly cruising the same streets. 
    • Alas, poor Toadflax!  And gentle Alkanet.
    • Generally wild flowers which are indigenous to the UK are more likely to be supporting more wild life than introduced species, more commonly found in gardens, simply because wild life hasn't had time to adapt to it. Although of course many introductions which flower will be supporting pollinators more generally. (This would also be true of native as opposed to introduced tree and scrub species). And I suspect plants which are flowering over public space, even if rooted on private property, are being removed to stop them setting seed in public space. [Although many might see that as a good thing if the plants have merits of their own].
