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...

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
