Had to take a second look!

Hope it's making others smile too! I don't know the background or how long it's been there 😊

I think it's connected with the totem pole renovation celebrations

They have passed now, but the notice has been there since then (at least that's when I first saw it - I passed it on the 484 and also took a photo!)

The directions for Dulwich a bit suspect.

I believe "Dulwich" is deemed where Dulwich library is situated so left at Peckham rye and straight up Barry Road

Dulwich is a slightly ill-defined concept.  I think this definition is "Dulwich Library" via Barry Road

Or turning left,  continuing on down Forest Hill Road and turning right further up. 

Google maps has Dulwich marked at the junction by the old Grove, where the South Circular heads off towards the rest of Dulwich.

But whatever, yes you can definitely get to Dulwich by going in the direction shown on the signpost!

I'm not sure you would get "anywhere" by going straight down, though, let alone 23 miles down 🤣

I like the "Now here" though!

It's easier to turn left at that junction than to go straight ahead, though, because if memory serves there are only two lanes,  and buses turning right (there is no right turn for cars)  clog up the right hand lane.

And the distance driven is probably about the same.

Not everyone wants to go to the library,

the real Dulwich (village) is straight ahead.

Eh? Straight ahead of what? 

If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove.

Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!

From the sign.

Turn left up Peckham Rye, turn right onto Barry Road, straight across at the lights onto Eynella Road which leads you to Court Lane and Dulwich Park.

You could turn right here and Dulwich Village is at the end of Court Lane.

Of course you could stand by the sign and be “Now here or Nowhere”
