The Council are now consulting on the ?Preferred Options? PNAAP (Peckham & Nunhead Area Action Plan). I am starting this thread about one particular part of what they call Character Areas. This is a new section they have included in the PNAAP to subdivide the SE15 area into five, more local, sub-areas. You can find the whole text for this on pages 84 - 114 in the PNAAP. The five areas are shown in this pdf map extracted from the PNAAP


Peckham South is one Character Area. The policy text for this is in pages 100 ? 106 in the PNAAP It covers the SE15 streets to the west of Rye Lane. This includes the Bellenden area, where there are many EDF people, and so seems useful to create a thread here to discuss the proposals and the issues. These issues include:

1. The proposed boundary of Peckham South

2. Development of back land sites

3. Poor design of infill developments

4. Shopping frontages

5. Open Space

6. Traffic

7. Car parking

8. Public realm / built environment


If you live or work in or know the ?Peckham South? neighbourhood do please read the text pages 100-106 link above, and contribute to the discussion on those or any other issues.


You can find some comments and suggestions on some of the issues here.


The comments have to be with the Council by 24th April; email your comments with your name, street and postcode to [email protected] If you don?t want those personal details to appear publically say that clearly.


You should be able to see the paper copy of the PNAAP in the libraries, and you can get a copy by post by asking for one giving your name and address:

- email: [email protected]

- phone: 020 7525 5471


I?d like to end this introduction by asking who, reading this, has already seen the PNAAP and is aware of the consultation timetable ending 24 April 2012? I hope we can have a real discussion here about this Peckham South Character Area plan!

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
    • I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
