awland Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hi,I am looking into moving to Fenwick road which is in Peckham Rye, but near the borders with east dulwich. I know East dulwich is relatively safe, but have no idea about this area. If anyone live around there or know that area well, your thoughts would be much appreciated.Thanks,Alice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeckhamRose Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Peckham Rye / East Dulwich, they're just words. If someone is going to commit a crime they're not going to think - "Here's an invisible line I must not cross because no-one cares about a place with the word Peckham in it".Enjoy the area. The park is fabulous and in a way you're in the middle of a lot of useful areas. Two stations, loads of bus routes, a fabulous park, great shopping streets, Rye Lane and Lordship Lane depending on what you want AND another fabulous little shopping street Evelina Road in Nunhead (Sopers and Ayres for example), the best doctors anywhere, being Nunhead Grove which is near you. But don't just live there, join the community and be part of it. The Peckham Society, The local community council, the police ward panel for your area, and others things. Be happy and hope you enjoy it there/here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeban Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Oh for goodness sake. It's London and it's all the same! sorry but this kind of attitude really annoys me. Peckham Rye is an absolute gem, and you're lucky it's having you to stay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluerevolution Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Well said Zeban, I've lived off Peckham Rye for 2 and a half years, no problems whatsover, Peckham is no worse than any other part of Britain, let alone London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
???? Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 ..and I can't see where anyone says anything different in this thread? Op just asks a simple question - defensive reactions to anything with 'Peckham ' in it shocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taper Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Fenwick Road seems fine to me. Lots of families, streets fairly busy, so quite safe. Very well positioned too. Most areas to the west of Peckham Rye (the road) are pretty good. And Peckham Rye (the park) is a wonder. Good for transport, pubs and Shops. I'd live there.
