I guess it depends on your point of view. And understand the local area - it is a busy place for not so local people to do shopping (short stay parking), the estate agents "require" at least two spaces per employee (one for their own car the other for the company car) and there are plenty of houses having building work done to them resulting in at least 3 spaces dedicated to skips and builders vans... yes lets introduce residents or controlled parking I'm sure Peckham has plenty of space :-|
