  1. As someone who has lived in the area for much longer than BARA (the person) I'd like to add to BARAS's comment: > Many of the older people rented from private landlords who had refused to put in bathrooms, indoor toilets etc due to costs In the 1950s and 1960s the area between Lordship Lane and Barry Road had a high incidence of rented properties with elderly (in those days over 60) tenants. Nearly all of these tenures had Controlled Rents or (later) Regulated Rents, sometimes for Controlled Tenancies with the right to inherit the tenancy. There was also a fair number of requisitioned properties rented out by Camberwell Borough Council. For landlords the return on these tenancies with government controlled rents below market price rents was less that the return on Consols. The landlords could not afford these improvements without subsidising their tenants. An additional problem for modernisation was the number of properties with two or more households in one property with no structural internal division (typically one up, one down). A local estate agent's brochure from c1880 seems to support the history books and confirm that a significant proportion of these properties were built for rental.
  2. Not a good idea to give SQL access outside Admin.
  3. > (built on the common) How green is that?
  4. > It's just a business proposition. As are the other East Dulwich dispensing chemists.
  5. > im focusing on Gentrification, and am carrying out a case study on East Dulwich!! im looking at how Gentrification can cause false aspirations,myth, status anxiety and emotional distress BUT also how it can improve an area greatly. Your supervisor might not like the prejudment.
  6. Which other medical practice does ~on-site~ dispensing? Given the choice I would prefer to stay on-site and collect my prescription rather than walk the streets of East Dulwich to find a dispensing chemist that is open after 6pm.
  7. > Except that some of the Services are already provided. Which other medical practice does on-site dispensing?
  8. > ? whether any of the services proposed are already provided within the neighbourhood Seems conclusive then. DMC would be the only supplier of on-site prescription dispensing.
  9. No, I didn't get a receipt. It might have only been a non-refundable deposit.
  10. I'm not sure about this, but, I might have helped fund Maurices's education.
  11. Do these public meetings have police protection?
  12. mightyroar: > This is clearly an ill considered site for the 100 hours pharmacy. A 100 hour pharmacy ~within~ a medical centre dispensing prescriptions on site seem a preety good community benefit to me. Do you want the medical centre closed because it is on an ill considered site?
  13. > The Best Bar in East Dulwich 2007 - coming soon The existing ones better watch out then.

There is ample evidence of this in photographs of East Dulwich streets taken before the First World War. Barry Road was once upper-crust.
  15. > The other day I was walking down Lordship Lane and two mothers with buggies and small kids had stopped for a chat between the post office and the bus stop. Of course I fully understand that if you are at home with kids and go out shopping it is nice to stop and chat with another adult, who will very likely be another mother. However, between that really busy bus stop and the post office! They were there for ages to as I walked down to Scumerfield for a few items and they were still there when I walked back. No-one could get by them without being given daggers so people (including the old and other people with children) were having to walk on the outside of the bus stop to get by - which could be dangerous. Bascially they were treating everyone else as 2nd class citizens. This has happened to me too in another Lordship Lane location and I had to walk in the gutter with my shopping bags. Some people in the new East Dulwich treat old people as undermenschen.
  16. > Anyone know how I would go about silencing these people? Is it a matter for the council? As I wrote round about the time the children joined this thread... It would appear that the church needs a premises licence under the 2003 licensing provisions (I also provided the URL).
  17. > They must be stopped before they either hurt someone or become more experienced thieves. Thank you in advance. Keep East Dulwich safe!!!! Shop-owners who read this forum could put warning notices in their windows.
  18. > There is also a tree on Zenoria Street that has been hanging onto the road for years, that really should go to. Last time I walked past this tree had a yellow execution notice.
  19. It seems that these churches need a "premises licence" to play/perform music. See here.
  20. These churches are places of entertainment and I don't see why they should have greater restrictions than, say, The East Dulwich Tavern.
  21. BARA requested police protection? This is getting surreal.
  22. Is it a criminal offence to impersonate an MP?
  23. And while they are about it that could reinstate the London Bridge overnight Royal Mail trains. Very useful as they usually had a couple of passenger coaches that could be used for early hours untimetabled stops. Seems that some have not been using London Bridge for very long. The Puzzle to me is why the service is worse than the LBSCR provided in the 1880s.
  24. Next to platform 16 - now over-built with admin buildings.
  25. > London Bridge is oversubscribed. Only six tracks and they can't do more without destroying a lot of old buildings. Not true. They could reinstate platforms 17-20.
