Glad to hear you were alright! Thanks for the advice - starting to think my builder was just being a bit sensationalist.

I lived right by there for 10 years, walked through it to sainsbury's most days, walked through it for drop off pick up of kids at nursery every day.

It's well kept, has community spirit and is quiet.


Ignore unlurked, (s)he's an idiot.


Even the Fox on the Hill isn't especially bad, just your typical Wetherspoon's really, good beer, great prices, zero atmosphere.


Oriwu spot went to the great pub co in the sky, now nice flats (with zero storage by the looks)

I'm buying one of those flats actually! Storage isn't too bad.

Good luck, it's a nice secluded spot, the nursery have put in a wonderful garden in what was scrubland littered with dog poo and broken bottles just behind the flats, and have nice community events there.

When I got stuck in the snow at the bottom of the hill residents came out and helped push me out.

Lovely spot frankly.

The Estate is a nice place to live in most of the people have bought their properties, and are hard working. I do not live on the estate, but on the Sunray estate, but have seen the change, which is so clear. Whichever area you plan to live in has it's elements whether it be good or bad, but you have to live in it to experience and cope with it.


My son was mugged in Dulwich village on a Sunday inbroad daylight on a summer's day while with his friends, this happens unfortunatly whereever you are, as it it is the sign of the times of wanton greed.


You will enjoy living there, and the facilities around the area are so abundant you will never want to leave.


Thanks

    • 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.
