Green roof

Recommended Posts

A friend HAD one, it was expensive to install and expensive to remove and replace too.


If it's on a roof attached to the house / flat then it could be a potential problem when you come to sell.


It?s for looks only if you want to be environmental then just put in more solid insulation.


Imho for garden sheds only ..

The newly built house at the Crystal Palace Road end of Ulverscroft Road has a green roof, or part of it does. I saw the turves (well not turves but you know what I mean) outside before it was installed, but I don't think you can see it from the street.


You could try asking the occupants about it.


There's loads of info online if you google "Green Roof".


eg this website (apparently they're based at/part of the University of Sheffield)

    • I didn’t think so but National Rail planner says 16 minutes, including 5 minutes to change platforms at Peckham. Quite surprising.
    • I want to recommend Derek who has been gardening professionally for over 20 years. He recently did a job for me and I found him to be reliable, thorough and affordable. He is based in SE15 and can do most aspects of gardening be it general maintenance, hedge-cutting, planting, pruning, creating beds etc. Derek: 07376 041 321
    • Hi everyone, Moving to East Dulwich (SE22) from Melbourne, Australia; I've never actually been to the area (husband has) so the only thing i've got to go on is google street view, instagram and a few rogue tiktoks. Looks great though and excited for the move. Any cycling clubs that can be recommended or group rides? I'm thinking Peckham Cycle Club but wondering if there are any others in the area to consider; and secondly, any fenced dog parks / good spots to take our 2x dogs. Cheers!
