When Southwark's online site re planning applications was re jigged a few years ago I noticed that it was not possible to access documents relating to older applications .


This has bugged me for a while - partly because I enjoy their historical content but mainly because they provide useful information on how Soujthwark handle planning applications and objections .


Now I find that public comments made less than 2 years ago ( may not relate to all applications but certainly to the one I'm interested in ) are no longer available to view .


Does anyone know how to access older records ? I'm guessing it involves phoning Southwark ,personally visiting the office ?


Anyone feel that is very unhelpful ?

You may have blocked this page accidentally. It always works fine for me, even on my phone!

How far back are you looking? I've just checked and I can see the planning applications for my house which was 2005/7 - as you say the new system means that you need to search for them all over again as all the links have changed.


I can also do a search for applications in 2001/2 which seems to work fine - use the Advanced Search and put in a date range and then narrow it down.


No idea about the comments though.

Thanks. Must be something to do with the company internet (proxy/filter gubbins).

Ah, apologies, I was slow on the uptake. What's odd is that documents are only not available for decided applications. If the application was withdrawn or found to be non-compliant there is a link to the Archived Planning TP Case files which has the final decision letter on it.


I wonder if they only keep documents for a set period - 10 years for example. I think you're right the only way is to ask them direct.

      Neighbours not using their food waste bin

      Yes, I think people who don’t use their food waste bin are less likely to vote Lib Dem or Green or Labour as they think it’s a woke type of thing to do, like solar panels and other renewables.

      But we’re not in Canada so why celebrate their recent election? Wasn’t their winner our Bank of England director up until his defection to his homeland of Canada? He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.

      I expect that they consider it should be a free choice what to do with your waste, and that segregating it is a waste of money, no doubt it's all a woke conspiracy.  I expect that others are more up to speed with Reform policies. I should have asked Nigel when I was drinking with him.  Well within the vicinity of him in Westminster pubs a couple of times.

      Let's see how a Leader and party that thrive on division and demonising elements of our society actually do when they have to deliver. Let's hope that the two main parties don't consider that the best way to fight Reform is to become like then. Even less reason to visit the small town where I grew up.  Not a cause for any joy or celebration. Happy to celebrate the Canadian result.
