Save Our Shed ( Do the right thing Southwark )


Recommended Posts

Thanks Counterlass22. I have since had a constructive meeting with my ward councillors, who after hearing the whole story have agreed to advocate on my behalf to have the decision reviewed. Obviously I can't say too much here, but it is a very positive first step and is in no small part due the the great response to my petition, so thanks again to everyone who has supported it..

Thank you.

It was a Kit. I did a fair bit of research and found Dunster Homes to offer the highest spec for your money.

I'm sure they have seen a rise in demand since covid hit as the base version of this was about ?1000 cheaper when I bought it 2 years ago. Set onto a gravel grid base which avoids the need for a concrete plinth or anything like that it goes up in a long day with another day to felt the roof, paint etc. https://dunsterhouse.co.uk/premiumplus-lantera-w4-5m-x-d3-5m

A studio perhaps?

Hi All. Yes Captured on the Rye is still trading. We have a purpose-built garden studio at my address in Barry Road where we are now hosting parties for up to 12 guests......."

Good luck keeping it.

You mentioned local councillors and MP.

Any of these can act as a "Designated Person" where Social Housing involved - arguably this would apply to you as Southwark freeholder - https://www.housing-ombudsman.org.uk/designated-persons/


My experience as a former Council was the threat of doing this was enough to get an officer to stand down from silliness (my view).


Specifically ask you Councillors and MP who is willing to be a "designated Person" for you. It will be telling who steps forward to help practically.

    • I had no idea about the sourcing of the paving stones - where is the info on this? The extension of the paved area seems completely unjustified- plus, there is a cycle lane right thru the middle so there are bound to be some near misses with pedestrians. 
    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside
