Tucked between the top end of Landells Road and Plough Lane is East Dulwich's quirkiest house. It's a narrow, detached* house that looks like it is sticking out of the back of Le Moulin restaurant. I guess few people even realise it is there. It seems to be an original Victorian house, and was derelict last year but clearly somebody bought it and has been doing it up. Anyone know anything about its history?

Err, definitely not, I would NEVER redecorate my house like that, looks quite ridiculous, mind you isn't the phrase 'no accounting for taste'?? >:D<

Trinity, you and I obviously have EXQUISITE taste sweetie darlin wot wot wot. Unless they have painted the house pink pebble dash, put up lace nets, and installed 10 satellite dishes in the past week, then Pearcesa you have definitely seen the wrong house.

I sure do, although I don't think that is necessarily a good thing .. ! ;-)


The owners two 'yappy dogs' have not engraciated themselves with a number of the neighbours either!


Anyway, as long as the owners of No.5 are happy with the renovations - I guess that's all that matters! ;-)

    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan. 
    • And they started long before midnight!
    • First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
    • The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
