This is the day when loads of streets in Central London are traffic free so everyone can cycle around and imagine a better future!


RideLondon FreeCycle is the ultimate ride for cyclists of all ages, abilities and backgrounds. Set on a new, traffic-free eight-mile route, the event is a unique opportunity to explore central London by bike on Sunday 29 May ? and it's completely free to take part!


Southwark Cyclists will run a feeder ride at 10am from the cafe in Peckham Rye Park via Burgess Park and a ride back from Queen Street. For timing of the ride back speak to the ride leader who takes you in. Children (any age) are welcome with parents or carers. This is an experience for everyone. There will be other feeder rides from neighbouring boroughs. For details of other rides see: https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/our-rides/ridelondon-freecycle for more information.

London's annual festival of cycling. Sunday May 29th. Runs all day.


Southwark Cyclists are doing a led ride from Peckham Rye Park to Queen St in the City, via Burgess Park. Bruce is leading. It wil leave at 10am at Peckham Rye Park Cafe,and stop to pick up riders at 10.25 at Burgess Park Cafe (Chumleigh Gardens). https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/our-rides/freecycle-led-rides to book a slot and get a number.


you do not need to book. Feel free to turn up at Peckham Rye Park or Burgess Park. And of course anyone can just go to the traffic free roads in Central London under their own steam. It is a great event for families.


Also please consider Marshalling for Freecycle. We already have 100 people booked for our led ride and at present only 5 marshals. We need more, and if we have plenty marshals we can book more riders. So Southwark Cyclists is looking for competent cyclists to come and help for an hour (10-11). Marshalling mainly involves encouraging people to keep up and not to ride too wide. At junctions marshals, wearing bright tabards, will sometimes hold a lane of traffic so that more cyclists can cross. If you would like to help, please register as a volunteer marshal at

      Without doubt a busy road with constant traffic - but can always put in double glazing. If you have a car, don’t expect to park right outside - prob further away but with walking distance. Agree with PeckhamNicola re train times and freight but at least not wizzing by every few minutes! Sorry but little experience in state schools - obviously you have plenty of private - Jags Dulwich College, Alleyns. Judith Kerr on Half Moon Lane - good rep - no idea whether secondary or primary  - think primary. Also Charter School North - good reputation and Ark Evelyn - no idea! You might also look at West Dulwichand Crystal Palace Schools. Try Harris Academy as well. All the best.

Unless its a Herman Miller then its worth fixing but some other may not be worth it.

      Returning to the question, although still not directly answering I'm afraid as ive not lived on that road: I have previously lived in a house where the railway line was behind the house and over a playing field, and also in a flat blocked from the railway line by at least one more block worth of houses. I would not live that close to a railway line again. In the house the noise with the windows open always disturbed me at night. And you need to bear it mind it is not just the timetables of passenger trains you need to consider, at night time there could be freight trains too. That was my problem in the flat: not noise, I was shielded from that, but the weight of the freight trains passing made the whole building shake enough to wake me up. If you are a sounder sleeper or less sensitive to noise it could be fine. I would suggest checking if freight trains use that route though.
