Thats next door to my house and its disgusting!! I have complained and complained about it - mostly to J.Barber on here - who keeps saying that basically, the owners - who bought the land from Banfields - about 3 years ago basically cant afford to develop it at the moment. They were told in Jan that they had to tidy the site up, people keep dumping things on it / near it, they had 3 months otherwise the council would do it and then charge them for it but I am yet to see any progress.

It is being developed in to 6 houses - not sure where their cars are going to go but hey ho, will fight that battle when it starts!

This is the response I just got from J Barber in another thread:



Hi Anna,

Yes, I was told end of January works would start and nothing has happened and it'll soon be April. This is really bugging me.

I've asked enforcement officers when they plan to enforce and as soon as I get a response will get back to you.

James,


Thanks for you response; I raised the issue of this site being a fire hazard last year with your collegue Richard Thomas. Every time you walk past it, it looks more like a bonfire waiting for someone to put a match to it. If they did, it could well do damage to the little church hall next door and the adjacent flats.

I do hope that the developers get a move and the council will keep chasing them.

say heres an idea - clear the site, put down grass, trellis and climbers on borders maybe, a couple of trees and benches, a mini pond with frogs etc and create a lovely little restful glade [temporary of course with a sign that says ' brought to you by ....name of developers' till they are ready to build] what do you think? impossible? too expensive? Probabably half the cost of that Art Mural thang down on Northcross ..come on lets group email Mr Barber


edited to say i think i got a bit over-excited

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
