I think the OP meant the Constitutional Club They have one in Lewes too SJ - looks more happenin' than SE22's http://www.lewesconclub.com/

To be honest, ours was pretty rough to start with and we were happy with the slightly shabby appearance so I rubbed it down to get a stable surface then I think (must be 15 years ago) I used a roller.

Oil based eggshell and it worked fine and lasted for years without a problem.

If you search the Southwark Planning register and find the application, does it not include a document explaining the reason it was denied ?

unlurked or edhistory (unless they are one and the same)

Yup suffering too. ETA 02:20 on Thursday.

No, I don't believe the Dulwich Estate extends this far along EDG.

I know nothing of Foxtons but I would point out that the article referred to on the BBC's site is over 7 years old.

Duplicate thread alert. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,297833

Resurrecting this thread as apparently the owner/developer appealed the planning decision and won. Hence the recent activity and signs of demolition taking place. So the "Redevelopment of the site involve the demolition of existing house and rear garages, and the erection of a three storey building to accommodate 2x1 bed and 3x2 bed flats, erection of new garage to Elsie Road frontage with parking for 2 cars and 6 cycle parking spaces." is going ahead. Oh well, I just hope they don't bodge it.

They have no questions to answer. They're a local business conducting their business the way they see fit. They answer to no one apart from themselves and their investors. They are not a public body.

It's a gastropub. In a suburb of South East London. If it's opening raises "major questions" then god knows how you'd describe what's happening to Coulson & Brookes.

Does any actually have any verifiable information that TfL are removing the bus countdown indicators other than for maintenance of the bus stop itself ? There's a list here - http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/corporate/temporary-countdown-sign-removals.pdf - of temporary removals, which as has already been pointed out includes the stop near Nero's. All this talk of "saving money" is a load of bollocks unless someone can present some facts related to how much it costs to install and maintain the things and where it sits in the overall bus budget. I imagine TfL's bus budget runs into the billions so I can't believe removing 2500 countdown indicators is really going to make that much difference. And anyway, who said they are ? Credit to TfL for making the information freely available so that developers can produce smartphone apps but boo to them for charging for texts.

Does the ?285k include providing cycle storage facilities on the schools premises and if so is there room ? Most of the local state schools seem pretty tight on space. Which schools in Dulwich and Herne Hill will benefit from the funds ? I'd be unhappy if public funds were being used to subsidise the private schools.

It would seem that the Inspector considered the parking issue: "In addition, some incoming occupiers of the proposed flats may not be deterred by the ?parking stress? and could choose to own a car and also compete with existing residents for on-street car parking spaces. This would exacerbate the parking difficulties for neighbouring residents and, in so doing, harm their amenity and conflict with SP policies 3.2 and 5.6. Extracts from the Southwark Plan below, (my bold). Now you can disagree with the Southwark Plan and maybe try to influence the next version but that is the current plan and therefore the basis for the Inspector's assessment I guess, though I am no Town Planning expert, just a layman drawing together the available information. Policy 3.2 Protection of amenity 222 Planning permission for development will not be granted where it would cause loss of amenity, including disturbance from noise, to present and future occupiers in the surrounding area or on the application site. Reasons 223 To protect the amenity of an area and the quality of life for people living, or working in, or visiting the borough. Policy 5.6 Car parking 432 All developments requiring car parking should minimise the number of spaces provided. Maximum standards are set out in Appendix 15. 433 Where more than 20 surface parking spaces are proposed, applicants must demonstrate why this cannot be provided underground or within the building. 434 All developments will be expected to include justification for the amount of car parking sought, taking into account: i. Public Transport Accessibility Levels set out in Appendix 15; and ii. The impact on overspill parking; and iii. The demand for parking within the Controlled Parking Zones. The LPA will restrict permit provision where necessary. 435 Parking for retail and leisure uses within town centres should be shared with public parking, not reserved for customers of a particular development. Maximum stay restrictions are required for all retail and leisure town centre parking. Reasons 436 Too many cars cause problems with congestion and pollution, increasing travel times and expense as well as causing health problems. With fewer car parking spaces available people will seek alternative modes of transport to the private car, subsequently reducing congestion and pollution. 437 Access to services, leisure, shops and a range of amenities by public transport and other alternative modes of transport to the private car must be considered when providing less car parking in order to ensure efficiency and social inclusion. Measures to control overspill parking are necessary in order to prevent or mitigate loss of amenity including inconvenience to local residents caused by overspill car parking and increased pressure on on-street spaces.

I went to the see the Hunt/Lauda film Rush last night and was more than surprised to discover one of the early scenes was of a Formula 3 race in Crystal Palace Park. In spite of living in South London for 30 years and having visited Crystal Palace Park many times, I never knew it had been used for motor racing. Google found me various links to it's history including this YouTube clip of a 20 lap Formula 3 race from 1970, complete with Murray Walker commentary and James Hunt in the line up.

If a coffee shop then perhaps this is in anticipation of the new Harris Primary School that I think is planned for the old hosptial site behind the blue hoarding opposite.
