Have just been rudely woken up by a scam artist who must have knocked on my door 100 times... Description: late 20's-early 30's, London accent, lightly tanned skin, around 5"6 broad chested and overweight, light brown/dark cream coloured jacket and dark trousers, trainers. Looks and sounds like he'd just come out of prison. Claimed to be "working with the builders down the road" clearing their garden - despite there being no work done on our street at present! Quickly became rude and abusive when his pathetic ruse was called out. An unpleasant turd in human form. Have informed 101 who couldn't seem more disinterested. Warn any vulnerable friends/relatives I guess. -
I'm confused. If there are no lifts, does that mean people who are in wheelchairs or who otherwise can't easily walk, or who have heavy wheeled cases which they can't lift up and down stairs, can't use Peckham Rye station? I'd have thought that was against some or other disability legislation? -

Whose priorities? Peckham Rye station is operated by Southern Railway. Southwark Council doesn’t own or operate the station, and it can't force Southern or anyone else to install lifts at the station. I'd love there to be lifts at Peckham Rye. It would be very expensive. -
Anything that improves the front of the station has to be a good thing. Opening up the square in front is a superb idea, it will show the beauty of the architecture of the station, just as they did at Kings Cross when they ripped out the monstrosity of the 1960's frontage and now the station gleams. People probably go there to see the beauty of it. Now wouldn't it be good if once opened up and cleaned up, people visited to see how wonderful it then looks. I guess there is a generally lack of trust that the station square will open by the end of next year, HOWEVER, when the current frontage is removed and the square is opened up as it originally was it will look grand.
