From TfL "LORDSHIP LANE, SE22: Buses are diverted in both directions due to emergency waterworks on Lordship Lane. Routes 176 185 and 197 are diverted via Barry Road, Peckham Rye, Forest Hill Road and Honor Oak Road, and buses are unable to serve stops between Dulwich Library and Horniman Museum. Route 363 is diverted via Honor Oak Road and buses are unable to serve stops between Wood Vale/Forest Hill Road and Lordship Lane/Wood Vale. Route P4 is unable to serve the Lordship Lane/Wood Vale stop. Route P13 is unable to serve the Grove Tavern stop."

London Road starts at the junction with Wood Vale. P4's seem to be going up Lordship Lane towards the library.

London Road starts at the junction with Wood Vale. OK - I had assumed it was London Road when it was the A205 - which it is where the A205 swings round at the Grove Tavern. But Google maps supports London Road starting at Wood Vale.

Not helped by the idiots driving on the wrong side of the road through the ?road closed? signs, to discuovet the road is indeed CLOSED [who would have thought it?]. Cue lots of three point turns, including from an articulated Screwfix lorry which got stuck. Police motorbike rider on scene as of 20 mins ago to help with traffic control.

I watched people drive down Sydenham Hill this morning - discover no right turn (road layout means that?s only option) so they took a left. Unfortunately that meant driving into the green filter lane for oncoming traffic trying to get up the hill. As Wood Vale is open, there were a few. The mind boggles 😳

"I watched people drive down Sydenham Hill this morning - discover no right turn (road layout means that?s only option) so they took a left"


I'm so confused - I thought when you drove down Sydenham Hill (with recreation ground on your right ,estate on your left ) you could only turn left ?


What am I missing ????

I think you are both right.


Yes to have to turn left normally. But now you need to turn right in front of the Horniman towards Forest Hill.


But the road layout means it?s difficult to turn right which probably explains why the articulated lorry mentioned above had to turn left and do a three point turn.

To be clear, the lorry was coming from Forest Hill on the South Circular towards East Dulwich - he and at least 10 other cars drove around the "road closed" signs by the petrol station, and again by the Sydenham Hill turning, then got stuck just before the road works opposite Wood Vale (i.e. on the other side of the road). Total idiots.


The right turn from Sydenham Hill seemed to be working ok other than the fact that people were ignoring the road closed signs the other way.

176, 185, 197 and 363 are using Honor Oak Road.

"But now you need to turn right in front of the Horniman towards Forest Hill."


when you say turn right in front of the Horniman are you talking about traffic coming down Sydenham Rise ? Sydenham Hill joins the main road well before the Horniman if I recall .

I mean Sydenham Hill, turning right by the Horniman Play Park towards the Horniman museum. It?s a tight right-hand turn because of the road layout and traffic lights.

      Supermarkets have massive volume and tiny profit margins. If this were true Ocado would be dead by the end of the week, surely.

      The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly

      It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition
