we've lived here for 8 years now, it's lovely. We were also told not to live north of the railway (by a Bellenden Road snob) - but we were also told that this was 'the 2nd best road in Peckham'! Never found out what the best road was . . . It's a great road, apparently built as a show road in the 1860s so lots of different styles of houses, the road is wider than usual, and some very long gardens. Loads of buses just down on the Peckham Rd, Peckham Rye (and Denmark Hill, which isn't that much further) very good, and will be getting the Overground in December. Close to shops and pubs on and around Bellenden. Rye lLane is a practical, if not beautiful, place to shop, I like that I can walk in less than 10 mins to a decent sized supermaket, Boots, Primark, Maothercare, WHSmiths, library, swimming pool. Very good if you have/are planning to have children.


Never seen or heard a tiger though . . .

Agree - we recently moved to crofton rd, just along from Denman and we love it. The transport is excellent as others have said. I agree with the Taper about being higher up the slope - closer to bellenden and Warwick gardens etc, but also a great view! You're in walking distance of lots of convenient areas, bellenden, rye lane, lordship lane and camberwell church street as well. Good luck with your decision!

    • Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name. 
    • It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.  
    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!  
    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!
