Hi Ranata and Cass

There was a thread on here a while ago which I started but I can't find it now.

There was a planning application to build a supermarket and several flats above on the site where the vets, estate agent and barbers are currently. The planning application was withdrawn but will probably be revised and resubmitted. That corner needs improving, but I felt that it was an overdevelopment of the site.

When I asked the manager at the Neighbourhood vets last year if they were moving due to redevelopment of the site he said definitely not however they are moving to Lordship Lane in the next few weeks so there we have it. It's a little bit further for us on foot down busier roads but still very close by so not too bad.

Oh, so you're not a spammer? Just a fan of coming onto a local South London forum recommending a) Singaporean air condition servicing; b) sleep headphones for sale in the US only and c) cat scratchers? Please. Just take it somewhere else.

I?m glad to see one of these nuisance spammers engaging with the forum. Tell us, how much do you get paid for posting these links and why do you bother when you?re targetting a geographical market who wouldn?t be interested in the products/services you?re advertising?

Sorry, we didn't see this spammer. I won't ban them just yet as I'm interested to see if they reply but I will remove their spammy posts.


We seem to be getting a lot of spammers these days, please do report them (just one per spammer) and we'll get to them asap.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
