"Sweet spot of South London"


Its a regular section about parts of London.

Hope and Greenwood and concrete house pictures.

Some of what it says sounds like it was researched on here! Its very positive about shops, schools, bars, pubs, restaurants. Even transport!

David that's what makes our community so great, the very essence of ED is that we communicate, we bond, we fight the good fight, we retaliate as a community. On here, on the Lane, off the Lane and everywhere around the lane. And that's why papers like the Metro and the Guardian, are very positive about places like ours. AAAHHH :)

I don't think it is a happy coincidence there are just plenty of media employees who live here and are able to 'big it up' in the press.


Without being disloyal, other areas of London are v. similar to E.Dul as more professional families staying put as their kids growing up and going to secondary school (due to the recession and more job security / opportunities in London) rather than moving out and so local high streets are booming to support new demands.


PS Quite happy with this just don't think ED is particularly different to plenty of other areas in London.

I've always had really friendly and helpful service in Hope and Greenwood.


Their sweets are expensive but very yummy for special occasions, and their ice cream is fantastic - and fantastic value.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By first mate · Posted

      I agree, the people in the park office seem to be invisible. Quite why we need a park office I am not sure. Perhaps it is to do with all the maintenance and upkeep for which there will be organisation and admin. It may be expensive but I do think funding some sort of regular park safety oversight should be a priority. Southwark to want young people to use the park, as do we all, but there probably does need to be some sort of supervision for everyone's sake.

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      The big difference, other than increasingly flaking paint, seems to be graffiti. The question is, will that/ can it be controlled?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      I took back my 🤣 because I think the idea is unworkable expensive and would produce little result.  There seems to be people in the office next to the toilet but I don’t think they leave the office. I’m not sure what they do there.  The toilets have been in a disgusting state for months and months with many promises to repair they are not functional and they invite vandalism. I shall  try to add a couple of photos. The council doesn’t care why should we?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
