Hello All,


There has been quite a bit of speculation over the last week or so as to whether Brick House will be taking over the old ED Warehouse space, and whilst we have not yet signed the lease, we thought we should respond and say that yes, we hopefully will be.


Our plan is for 1 Zenoria Street to become Brick House's new home, housing our current business as well as a shop and cafe. A destination bakery where you can see what you eat and drink being made and baked on site. We will be offering a simple breakfast and lunch menu, as well as afternoon tea and tasty snacks and coffee throughout the day.


As Zenoria Street is residential, we are sure that there will be some concerns about trading hours etc, so we are very keen to allay some of these fears. Our proposed opening hours are 8am-6pm Tues - Sat, 10am-4pm Sunday. We are at present planning to be closed on Monday. We also would like to explain that we do not operate in the same way as many bakeries in that we do not work through the night. There will be a small team on site early in the morning baking, but otherwise the premises will be empty for the majority of the time outside of trading hours. We would also like to point out that everything we do is made by hand. It is not an industrial process, and we are a small operation (one delivery van that leaves the baklery at 8am every morning).


We are hoping to move our wholesale business into the site after Christmas, and opening the shop and cafe to the public at the beginning of Feb.


Finally, we just wanted to say that we are a local business in the truest sense, so we are hoping that we can count on the support of local community and forum. Brick House was born in SE22, my wife and I live just over the common, we employ local people, and we hope to help Lordship Lane to continue to thrive.


I hope this answers some of your questions, and please take a look at our website if you would like to find out more about us and our bread www.BrickHouseBread.com


Many thanks


Fergus & Sharmin Jackson

At what time does the "early in the morning" start? Is this the same as Tyrell Road?


Why have you not applied for a partial change of use to B1. Is Tyrell Road B1?


How are you getting on with meeting the fire regulations?


Have you any plans to make changes to the shared foul water sewer?

Thanks for the responses everybody.


EdHistory, as mentioned in our post, we do not work through the night. Our dough shifts (what you refer to us 'bulk bread production') take place in the afternoons from around mid-day until around 7pm. All our bread has it's final proof in a fridge over night, giving a nice and slow final rise. This is not only great for flavour, but it also means we don't have to work into the early hours.


Your other questions are matters for Southwark's planning department, not the forum.


Thanks

I think Fergus was telling you what he was willing to discuss on the forum. Not everything is about you John K.

It's his default state.

You do realise that you don't have to queue - you can go elsewhere.

I do go elsewhere though I will try the new bakers.


I get my bread from Euphorium Bakery They have a branch Tesco Surrey Quays. ?2.90 for Rye/Sourdough


It will be more convenient to have somewhere local if not doing a weekly shop.

      Fireworks last night

      Does anyone know where the fireworks were actually coming from? If from someone's garden, that's even worse. Pity the poor immediate neighbours 😭

      Dog Faeces in East Dulwich!! 

      By Sue · Posted

      That's true. They often weren't emptied. But that is surely down to the council making sure they are regularly emptied, rather than an argument against bins per se. If they can spare the staff to go and remove one off  piles of dog s**t from the pavement every time they are reported, it is surely not  beyond their capacity to empty the bins. I don't have a dog, but I didn't know the green bags could be put in "any litter bin or green house bin"? If that's the case, what's the point of having dedicated dog poo bins at all? Why not just publicise this more widely and/or increase the number of general litter bins?

      Tesla at Belair House

      Yes. I can't imagine that there are many Musk supporters locally, but who knows.

      Tesla at Belair House

      In response to the query about cost, I think it is perhaps more to do with the news, a raised arm and world events….
