In case you've missed the lamppost poster, please see below link to consultation on the planning website. Location is the garden behind 68 East Dulwich Grove (corner of Melbourne Grove northern section). Consultation end 25th October.


Worth noting the site already has permission granted for a smaller 2 bed property.

Not sure why anyone would object to this other than a neighbour who doesn't want construction going on, or worried they will lose some privacy. But really building a house on a plot that is big enough, on a residential street, in an area that needs more housing seems like it's going to get waved through.

I've been wondering what was going on there with the makeshift gate to the back garden. I see the owner is also having to apply for a certificate of lawfulness for the existing house, to use as a house of multiple occupation. IMO that place is an eyesore, and the hedge needs cutting back.

I would have thought that this new house - with inbuilt garage - would have impacted on the right to light for the houses next door. The design isn't going to win any awards - it looks pretty dull to me.

Would be nice if it blended in with the existing houses. It's rather garish.


You could even make a small access road down the right of it so the other two houses behind it could build on their gardens too - they might want to at a later date. This is removing any opportunity for them.

    • I was interested in this paragraph: Are the local councils renting out their parks getting ripped off by the international festival operators and private equity companies who own the festivals?
    • Found Chilli & Garlic to be pretty tasty and very good value, a really welcome addition amongst the sourdough, bakeries and pub fare. Personally, I prefer smaller sized Falafel, for more crunch and lightness. And I found overall, everything lacking a bit of punch. More Chilli and Garlic, and pickles please! Maybe that’s just what I’m accustomed to.  Highly recommend the falafel on Northcross Road market - amazing value, really excellent falafel, and you can really taste the care that goes into the homemade fresh pickles, sauces & salads.  Having travelled extensively in the middle east & I find it a close match to the many falafel stands I have tried.       
    • MSN is an aggregator. Not a news source   the source is a Nick Gutteridge article in the Telegraph so, closer to reform than BBC   (I would question BBC news reliability these days mind you) It would be difficult to describe gutteridge as objective.  But it would be easy to claim he is frequently wrong, bordering on bonkers   https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/n/nf-nj/nick-gutteridge/ There is no physical reality where, as we run out of fossil fuels and turn to whatever will replace them, where existing fossil fuels don’t become more expensive  not this country, not any country - you might see some short term ups and downs as politics plays its part - but to whine about your political enemies tackling the dwindling fossil fuels is both childish and playing with people’s lives
    • I popped in to have a chat with them and a look around after I'd eaten somewhere else so didn't sample anything, but they seemed to have plenty of staff so hopefully service won't be too slow! Planning to try soon.
