I have a query on behalf of our neighbours at Bradbury Oak House, the RNIB residence. There was a burglary in one of the flats (very vulnerable resident) on Sunday 4th July at approx 11am. Before the suspect went to Bradbury Oak, he/she briefly spoke to someone inside the common ways of our house, 8 Underhill Rd, having walked down from the direction of Melford Rd. I have been unable to ascertain who they spoke to.


The suspect was a black male/female, wearing trousers & a white hooded jacket with a scarf over their head. They entered Bradbury Oak empty handed, but left with their hood pulled up, carrying a plastic carrier bag in each hand and walked up towards Melford Road.


I was wondering whether anyone locally might have picked up someone who walked inside the gate of number 8 briefly before continuing to Bradbury Oak or approaching/leaving Bradbury Oak House on their Ring doorbell, or just noticed someone fitting the description. If you did, the police would love to hear from you as they are looking for witnesses. Please see the attached for contact details and full description.

I heard from a resident at Bradbury Oak that the person stated that he/she advised tenant that they were a representative from the tenants cleaning company who wanted to check the cleanliness of the flat. The resident had a regular cleaner and did not query the information. Apparently another resident's door bell was also rung but thief did not get an answer.

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
