  1. Good news! After reports that it was not happening, the fruit & vegetable merchant Taylor's of Maltby Street will be opening in Dulwich Village after all. They announced this week that they were closing their Maltby St shop and working opening in the old Jigsaw show on the North parade asap. They've just created an instagram account for it https://www.instagram.com/taylorsofdulwichvillage/ It will be great to have an alternative to the expensive and average quality SimplyFresh in the village.
  2. Indeed Tesco will replace Poundland soon. They've asked for permission to add an ATM
  3. An absolute specimen decided yesterday to ram the plastic fences by Derwent Grove and drive his Golf over them
  4. That Co-op is such a depressing shop (like all Co-ops sadly) I wouldn't mind seeing it replaced by something else. Even a Tesco would be nicer, which is saying something!
  5. Went to try Hausu this weekend, the restaurant which has replaced the Peckham Coal Rooms inside Peckham Rye Station after they closed down. We had a really good meal, served with very friendly staff. Trendy and creative modern British food in the same vibe as Levan, with an interesting selection of wines. The strawberry eclair for dessert was divine, I wish they would sell it as takeaway! Only criticism is no coffee at the end of the meal as the coffee shop at the front is on a separate lease that still has a few months to run before they can take over. I wish them much success.
  6. Foxtons is well known for overvaluing. A good approach is to contact 3 agents in your area and ask them to do a valuation. If you see notable differences ask them to explain, they shouldn’t mind doing that. Look at who is often selling local flats similar to yours on Rightmove or Zoopla.
  7. Old Spike is great. Also Redemption Roasters in Dulwich Village

  9. Hopefully we will see something like Melbourne Grove, where all the shops that initially closed after the road closures were then replaced with new ones. I think all the units on that street are now finally open for business.
  10. Here's a working link: https://www.propertywire.com/news/london/circa-london-partners-with-developer-to-sell-9-6m-dulwich-townhouses-to-far-east-buyers/ I think they look quite nice from the outside which is what matters to me as a member of the public. The indoor floorplan is not to my taste with lots of awkward small floors, but I don't care about the inside as I don't plan on living in them.
  11. Oh! That's surprising as they had a sign saying they are closed for an exciting refurb, although it's been in that state for many months now. Romeo Jones also closing permanently this week. Maybe these closures will open up a space for Dulwich Village to finally have a great restaurant (though Romeo Jones' unit seems too small for this kind of use) Still waiting for the grocer to open in the old Jigsaw shop. Inside it's all been refurbished but still empty since the DE announced it in January

  15. Please bring this to Dulwich Village - we only have cafés and chain stores and could really do with some retail dynamism ! There's so much disposable income in the area, but so few good options to spend it.
  16. Hi Malcolm, thanks for the recommendation. Would you say Jovaner is someone who usually works from drawings and architects specifications or can he do some of the design work himself? Scale-wise, would you say he is well-suited to room refurb or also to do full builds from scratch? Sorry for the specific questions but that would help me assess what sort of work I could use him on! Many thanks.
  17. I do not share these concerns. Are you worried about it?
  18. I recently saw that Nelly's has been bought by the PE-backed nursery megacorp Partou and I'm wondering if any of the parents sending their kids there have seen a difference? I'm concerned about staff leaving, corners being cut, this sort of thing! Any feedback appreciated!
  19. The reason why this time it feels believable that it will actually happen is that the council has at last awarded the contracts for the works to BAM Nuttall.

  22. [RRP £479 | price £89 | Saving £390] Used until a few weeks ago, but no longer needed due to house move. 1x RBR20 router 2x RBS20 satellites (standard extender) 1x RBS50 satellite (big extender with more range) Supplied with power cables. Some scuffs which do not affect functionality. Collection from Dulwich Village.
  23. I've recently noticed that a lot of the white post chain fences around Dulwich are broken, felled, have missing chains or detached chains, etc. I believe the Dulwich Estate is responsible for taking care of those, but does anyone know how we report these maintenance issues to them? I'm guessing that FixmyStreet would send it to the council who would say it's not their job...
