A loss of 340 car parking spaces in East Dulwich Ward alone. John K

Our postie has asked that I post these details here with the hope that some East Dulwich people engage and prevent the East Dulwich SO war memorial being destroyed. John K http://www.postalheritage.org.uk/collections/getrecord/GB813_Mem94

Probably a prudent decision. The SSW internet footprint suggests this is an organisation of two people. Could be wrong. Perhaps Ms Cameron could explain the SSW structure. John K

I make that over 2km of new double yellow lines in East Dulwich Ward alone. Someone else can work it out for other parts of East Dulwich that are not in East Dulwich Ward. John K

The list could do with an > edit. It is a little difficult to disown the owner of the SSW website. This probably explains why bad information never gets corrected. I missed the questions about ghosts and dogs.

So, which people comprise SSW? Is it a secret? Who holds the funds? Was Ms Cameron in the area in 2011-2012? John K

Are these graves in Area Z? John K

This is the Land Registry entry for West of Greendale. I don't have a copy of the Land Registry entry for East of Greendale. That will cost someone ?3. John K

Perhaps you might have found it helpful to have read some RESET Development material. John K

When and where are the first set of accounts being published? John K

Meanwhile... What are the names of the councillors voted in favour of this development and which wards do they represent. John K

Does SSW ever correct errors on the SSW web-site and publish apologies? John K

What are the names of the people who made this decision? Which Southwark Wards do they represent? John K

So, is this now resolved?

Appendix A Topographical Survey Of the bsp Consulting [sic] Area Z Camberwell Old Cemetery Drainage Strategy For Southwark Council 30 June 2015 Has a 0.5m resolution contour survey of the cemetery. It's easy to see the drainage run-off pattern. You could do a 3D landscape model like we used to do in primary school. It might help SSW people understand the topography. The right hand panels have the tree survey schedule which does not agree with the uncompleted SSW tree count. The schedule also has tree measurements. John K

It may be some time ago when I had work-related bulk transactions running through Rye Lane BO, but.. I'm pretty sure this was then a Crown building. Has anyone checked with the Land Registry for a recent transfer? John K

I would like to repeat my request for a plan (or tabulation) of the cemetery blocks that are said to have been consecrated in 1913. The cemetery blocks as laid out seem to be rectangular, except on the perimeter. This seems to be in conflict with the "overlay" lines. Where, exactly is this consecrated area? John K

http://www.architectsjournal.co.uk/news/studio-octopi-lands-peckham-rye-lido-job/8681095.article What happened? John K

SSW would benefit from knowing that there are 4840 square yards in an acre. https://thejohnfleming.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/blanchecameron_lewisschaffer.jpg John K

Just in case I don't get an answer again. On the SWS home page he is listed as a "Leader from Public" life. Just above Zac Goldsmith. John K

Mr Barber has previously explained that he has changed his day time job and needs some settling in time. That's good enough for me. John K
