Lordship Lane Police Station

[rch]

In addition to the petition, we are going to publicly discuss the Dulwich impacts of the New Policing Model with the SNT sergeants and Chief Inspector at the Dulwich Community Council meeting on this Monday night, the 22nd Apr.

So, if you want information directly from the horse's mouth or to make your views heard, then you are welcome to attend.

The meeting will be held at Kingswood House on Seeley Drive (next to where the College ward police "step off point" is located), SE21 8QR.

This item is due to begin after the break at 8.40pm.

I'm slightly puzzled by James' statement that architects 'believe' the current Dulwich hospital building to be of poor build quality.

James could you elaborate? What is thought to be wrong with the building, is it structurally unsound and in danger of collapse?

It seems to me that it may be easier for various vested interests to do what they want with the site if the entire building is demolished and they can start from scratch, in that any attachment to the past has been erased and objections subsequently weakened.

I'd hate to see that bulding entirely disappear, especially if the rationale that the existing building is of 'poor build quality' turns out to be a 'belief' born of some political agenda and not a reality.

Why not use the original ED police stn site in crystal palace/north?

The police station in Crystal Palace Road, has holding cells and all the facilities necessary for East Dulwich, it served East Dulwich very well for years, Until some bright spark decided it was not big enough and decided to build a new one in Lordship Lane, and now it seems we do not need any sort of police station in East Dulwich. Now they have decided to over develop East Dulwich, and bring in more people and traffic, it seems to me, what with all these cut backs going on, because of the incompetence of Local Councils and the Government, Now is the time we need a police station, it?s probably one of the reasons crime figures are down, people just can?t be bothered anymore to report crimes etc, as nothing is ever done about them. And make no mistake crime figurers may be down according to the Gov stats, but they are still increasing and even more so because of the cut backs.

WE NEED A POLICE STATION IN EAST DULWCH.

Because we no longer have a goverment in this country only a agency for the E.U directing the coalition people.

Their main priority is to build in every available place(except their country seats) so they can accomadate the masses of migrants already arriving.

So what jobs will they do, ridiculous the migrants that came here in the fifties from Jamaica, and now their grand children still have no jobs so whose telling porkies about work there isnt any.

No manufacturing no factories a big fat nothing for any of us. the only reason for more migrants coming here is the

dictatorship that is the Europpean Union that is doomed, It hasnt done anything for any country in it just a select few have it easy. Germany mainly.

So any space in E.D will be solely for migrant intake. I for one will vote for UKIP .

and hope James Barber joins them in their endevours to save us from the E.U meglomaniacs.

[tiddles]

umm where to start with this.......

edited to add that we really should have a police station in the vicinity!!

[????]

So they come here a country that,s an 'agency for the EU' to escape the 'dictatorship' that is the EU eh Tarot, remove the spittle from your keyboard and see if your brain is capable of a barking argument that at least contains some logic eh?

[Tarot]

True Blue are we Quids or is it Euros, L.O.L.

I was going to remove the spittle from my keyboard,then i thought oh no i am lazy,i,ll wait for a new migrant worker to do it for me.

As for logic, tell us what has the European Union done for you,truly.

The state we are all in proves it didnt work,forty two years and we are all fxxxxd.

Thats why there is no police station in Lordship Lane, you havent got the logic to work that out its you thats barking

I gather your able to buffer yourself from all the hardships being imposed on the rest of us then.

Must be nice to feel smug and superior.

Any goverment elected is impotent.Strasburg runs it now. Unless we vote different. Wait and see Mr Logic,times are

changing we are not all sheep led by Judas goats, maybe you are though.

[LondonMix]

Agree with ????. You are barking....

[Otta]

"No manufacturing no factories a big fat nothing for any of us"

And yet most of the people that come here find work, and work bloody hard at it, because lots of Brits think cleaning (for example) is beneath them.

[Jeremy]

Far right parties like the UKIP and BNP prey on disaffected voters like Tarot, who want somebody to blame for all our problems, so point the finger at immigration. Luckily most people have the intelligence to see through it.

Decline in manufacturing has nothing to do with immigration. The recession has nothing to do with the EU. And none of this has anything to do with the sodding police station.

[satman]

I think this may explain Tarot's opinion a bit better ...

Sadly the Met have sold the old East Dulwoch Police station - junction Crystal Palace Road/UPland Road.

I've had a number of queries to the Met asking how a developer could buy the current Police station so we can encourage a more community minded developer to buy it and provide a new Police base.

If anyone can work out who to talk to at the Met about property.

[haslev]

As per letter from Montagu Evans, Chartered Surveyors to households in the area, The old police station has been sold to Dulwich Property Holdings Ltd who intend to develop the site for housing. The proposal is to build five town houses in Upland Road opposite the garden centre. The house that is presently boarded up is to be converted into four flats. The houses will comprise a basement (kitchen and dining area), ground floor living room, another two floors comprising two bedrooms on each floor and an attic with one bedroom and a bathroom. No parking spaces have been allocated to this housing development. If the plans had been for (say) three town houses on two floors it would have been acceptable, but to build houses incorporating three floors and a basement is out of character with the immediate surroundings and should not be allowed.

[fredricketts]

Haslev,

Could not agree with you more, even pulling it down will be part of Dulwich history disappearing,

for what; to overcrowd what was a good area.

[edhistory]

Five slave boxes in the back yard?

I wonder whether the yard's victorian sewer outlet can cope.

No doubt to be addressed in the planning application.

Does anyone know what is happening to the Lordship Lane police station? I understand it is closing down but what will become of the building and site?
