No they certainly have not. Now 6 caravans in the front of the car park and multiple loads of rubbish being dumped in the back of the car park. Can only assume they will continue the convoy of small trucks in and out to dump sofas, baths, rubble and whatever else they have. Whose idea was it to remove the concrete blocks that were in place to stop this from happening? This was destined to happen from the moment they were removed! The only surprising thing is it has taken so long.
I believe the land is still governed by a lease from Dulwich Estates to the company that were running the pub before the fire so would it not be for that company to take action regarding eviction etc? They don't seem the slightest bit interested in the property so they could well do nothing.

The concrete blocks have been replaced with locked gates, haven't they?


And I thought the car park was being used as a holding space for school buses so that they didn't obstruct local streets?


There is a thread on this somewhere.


So how did the caravans get in?

I think I recall from the old days of Greenham protests etc that you have to actually enter a physical structure to be breaking and entering, if you just "break in" to open land it's only trespass.

At least we can get our driveways tarmaced in the meantime.


Joking aside, are the local councillors and Dulwich Estate aware? If we can't change a porch, I don't see why these 'caravaners' have carte blanche. It is, however, a damning testament of the utter ruin that the pub has been left in for too many years. Are the Dulwich Estate and local authority even aware of the 'broken window' theory when it comes to neighbourhood decay?

If it's poss for you to take photos ( of rubbish being dumped ,people ,reg plates ) without drawing attention to yourself then it might be more productive to supply these to Southwark/police than posting on here .

I have reported fly tipping to southwark council - but because it is in a carpark of an unused pub I am not sure will they be able to remove the rubbish. and I have tried to contact the police also.

Further rubbish was dumped ~30 mins ago. I tried to take a photo - but did not get the registration as I was too far away.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
