Has anyone got any ideas on what to do about our next door neighbour's back garden, as it has not been maintained in the two years that I have lived at my property, and it is literally an overgrown jungle there now.


The garden needs a lot of work to bring it under control, but not only is it an eyesore, but it is now a home for feral vermin (foxes etc).


I think the property is unoccupied or I would have tried talking them, but there must be a way that the council can do something to ask the owners to clean it up?


Thanks in advance

I would add that we had this problem - where the property concerned where the freeholder was the council with two flats, one owner occupied and the other a council tenant. It took two years to get any attention from the council, they did very little. In the end the tenant and a friend did some tidying up - but it wasn't maintained thereafter and we're back to square one.


The council may be a little more forthcoming if they don't have to bear any cost?

    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.  
    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
