There has been a water leak at East Dulwich and Peckham Rye Junction for quite some time (at least a month). I've now contacted thames water about it.


We'll see how long it takes for them to get their act together.

Call our 24-hour freephone leakline on 0800 714 614.

You can find leak and maintenance reports on a map at https://inyourarea.thameswater.co.uk/, and enter your own report if you want. It seems to be the same map for several categories, with the same markers. Entering any local postcode will do to see it. The only one that might relate to the OP seems to be planned maintenance a bit further up Rye Lane, scheduled to start today.

***Update*** Reply for Thames Water "Hi Flux,...this is a private leak. We don't show these on our website - Luke".


They are dragging there feet regarding the leak issue, its been months. But I can't kick up a fuss if the residents will not act responsibly, and take charge and lead the way.

Thanks for taking the time to speak to me yesterday, about the ongoing water leak in the area. I?m emailing an update to you as requested.


We?ve investigated the leak outside the above property, and I can confirm there?s no leak on our pipes. Although this isn?t a Thames Water issue, we do take leaks seriously, and are working with all parties concerned to ensure the leak is repaired.


I can confirm the work is scheduled to be done shortly, however due to data protection, I?m limited to the information I can provide you.


I?ll update you by 5 September 2017, when we?re hopeful the leak will have been repaired.

I can confirm that the leak at the above location has now been repaired.


If I don't hear from you by 27 September 2017, I'll understand you're happy with the response and I'll close your case.


If you need to contact me again about this, please call me on 0800 0093902. Our offices are open between the hours of 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday. If I'm unavailable when you call then you can either leave a message for me, or one of my colleagues will be pleased to speak to you.


Yours sincerely

    • 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.
