Indeed -next to the ED LOCAL Newsagents (which also now has a "Retail Unit To Let" sign outside). Might be a lot of new exciting businesses soon... might be.

Thanks for the recommendations :)


Unfortunately a bit the wrong end of ED/Peckham for us as we're now Forest Hill/Honor Oak borders. My other half still travelled back to LL for Headnizm though, as the cuts were good and the prices so reasonable. Going to miss Stacey and her team.

Ed is definitely suburban.

Still waiting and hoping that we get a Fortnum & Mason type outlet on Lordship Lane. The 2 M&S stores are completely overrun with middle aged, well off ladies literally hellbent on chucking everything with a yellow sticker in their baskets. They clog up the aisles and unnecessarily decimate the stock available to those who come after work to buy dinner for the evening. A more upmarket store would hopefully seperate the wheat from the chaff and those who wish to can shop in more pleasant surroundings.

Before we know it chains like cafe Nero will move in and the lane will be doomed all doomed

I am serious, I have insider info, my contact knows everything. We have too many chains now, however the council are granting change of use, left right and centre.

The council need money from every single avenue possible, they are not bothered about chains. We now how shops, that no longer have USPs, due to businesses opening up and piggy backing off existing businesses.

Please don't be surprised in 5 years time when Lordship Lane, becomes another faceless high street.

This is, in fact, unlikely. Most of the LL shops have far too small a footprint to be commercially attractive to 'the High Street' shops. They need both frontage and storage areas. That has been our saving grace - we are great for small local independants, not attractive to chains. More likely is that increasing rates and rents drive everyone out - and we end up with closed shops or charity/ pop-ups. It is net profitability per square metre which is the driver in any retail operation. Drive up fixed costs and you drive down profitability, for any given turnover.

      That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this?

      To the thief

      By Sue · Posted

      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 newly landscaped Dulwich Square

      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

      Couple of potential ideas, anywhere in the East Dulwich areas or say close to the station?
