Dangerous slate roof - LL

[KidKruger]

This property is opposite the Lordship pub on Lordship Lane.

A falling piece of slate caught my attention earlier.

Someone?s gonna get a nasty injury if they cop a piece of slate in the head while walking underneath.

Beware !!

[KidKruger]

Seriously, be careful.

Wow, thanks for the heads up :)

Thanks.

I?ll have to wait until I pass the property again as I don?t have the address, which Southwark requires.

[KidKruger]

Southwark building control informed now - Thanks Goldi.

Try knocking if you are passing to see if they are aware before reporting them.

It could be as simple as the owner not being aware since the storms.

[KidKruger]

Possibly I guess, but I?m not going anywhere near that pavement.

One near-miss is enough !

It's nevertheless an existing public danger, so I don't see any alternative to letting the council know.

[goldilocks]

Thanks for reporting it - I'd imagine that the pavement will need to be fenced off so that if anything else slips it won't injure anyone until its made safe.

Looking at Google Streetview (

) that roof has been a bit of a mess since 2019 although it looks as though the recent storms have made it worse.

Reporting it was definitely the right thing to do.

Looks like kk spent the night on the tiles.

Well, I was a couple of feet away from spending a night in hospital (with a tile embedded in my skull bone) 😳
