Just heard from my friend who works for the estate agency Alan & Hansen that Poundland have a temp permit for 2 years to run their business in Lordship lane. Apparently it's going to be their flagship store. More to follow, as work on the store will begin in 2 weeks. Their aim is to become a cheap version of woolworths, which makes me wonder what the prices will be like? One pound for everything? Insane.


Here's a video clip of Poundland new store in Oxford Street. Looks well plush

I was hoping it'd be a Millets.


I was hoping they'd have a large display of cheap camping gear.


I was hoping there'd be a staff member outside with a megaphone hailing passersby with the phrase "Wow here is the window of our discount tents"


I reckon I'll feel much better when I give up hope.

What kind of permit would this be? AFAICS from the booklet on planning permision for businesses, downloadable from http://www.communities.gov.uk/publications/planningandbuilding/planningpermission, the place would still be in class of use A1 (shops, etc) , and so no permission for change of use would be needed. Am I wrong, and if so, am I right in thinking that any application for change of use should appear on the register at http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/485/planning_applications/554/search_the_planning_applications_register? I can't see any any current application there. What other permissions might be needed?

My thought as well. What permits are required?

At best they'd need Advertisement consent, possibly

Building control if they were to alter the internal layout.


Unless it's a short term lease you're referring to?

He of "Benny Hat" fame and the brain the size of Jupiter will probably be along soon. Can't wait he he...

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
