Mugged (by the Gowlett on Amott Road)


Recommended Posts

Just want people to be aware out there, I was walking home by the Gowlett on Amott Road when I was attacked by two guys with hoods. Tried to run away though they chased me down and kicked me in the face and chest. Please be careful out there as they are looking for people with phones, wallets, etc..

Bear in mind that slightly better off places by no means guarantee that crime won't happen. Muggers seek opportunities where they think they will get the best results, unfortunately. Definitely report it to the police, I have personal experience of them using crime stats to change the operational organisation of policing when problems arise,

Really sorry to hear about this, we live opposite the Gowlett but didn't hear anything. What did they look like? Have you asked Jonny if he has anything on his cctv?


However Dulwichfox and Louisa to claim that Amott Road and environs is to be avoided, or even that this was the case 5 years ago, is patent nonsense. Your biggest danger is being offended by shouty rugger buggers.

Hi Tommy


I was drinking in the gowlett on Thursday night. Left at around 1 and walked down amott, adys then ondine. There were a group of 4-5 guys hanging around the school on adys road. I passed then at about 20m and was drunk so could not recognise them by sight but one definitely wore a white hoodie. If you reported it and please do then maybe there are some cameras around the school which might get some decent images. I don't presume they're involved but its possible.

Muggers will always come to nicer places as they think the people living there must have better stuff to take, they also assume that the people who live in these areas have a naivety to this type of thing and will therefore be a lot easier to mug and get away with it...


Sadly I have lived here all my life and know a lot of people who have had this terrible experience, I think the best and hardest thing to do is to stand up for yourself and not be put off going anywhere just because your worried about bumping into one of these muppets! :)

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
