Brick House

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Just had this team/ company demolish a front wall, dig out the trees, build a wall, a place for the bins, landscape the front with stones and the liked and lay a new path and porch with a bull nose stone step. We are very happy with their work, diligent and attentive to detail, (it’s always difficult to know until things have bedded in for a few years but) good quality. Excellent communication. They’re very local, they know the East Dulwich clay, that the buildings and grounds are essentially mobile, and very dependant on the temperature and moisture in the ground. I think the key things for us - busy, always in and out, young kids etc - were we felt perfectly safe with them here, I don’t think they mucked about with pricing or quality once we were set (bits and bobs come up and were effortlessly sorted) and all in all, over the time it took for them to get the right quality (for them! the finish is good) we quite liked the team. We’d have them back in a moment, and are very happy to recommend them.
    • Sorry to hear that this is happening to your son. East Dulwich Grove doesn't fall into Dulwich Hill ward, it is split depending on the postcode it would either be Goose Green SNT or Dulwich Village SNT, you may check which one using the link below. On the website would also be the team and any events being held in the future. If it is an emergency please call 999 or non-emergencies 101. https://www.met.police.uk/area/your-area/
    • CIC is not the appropriate vehicle for a fund-raising intermediary.  CICs are for businesses that typically sell something or provide a service for social good  but are not for profit; a community cafe or arts centre, or an IT skills training centre for  unemployed people. it costs £65 to set up  a CIC, the scrutiny is less than for a full charity, and the administrative burden is pretty low if you don’t file accounts. It’s hard to prove a negative, but if you were trying to build a credible, positive case for giving money to street collectors for CityHive CIC, that might be a little harder still… tho thank you, Zahid for joining the Forum to give it a go.
