malcolmchurch Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 message recently posted on se23.com. closing the pub is now a done deal. so my rumours were not completely unfounded .... Today 04:32 PMI emailed Wetherspoons after the initial rumour was posted and got an answer (see below) a couple of weeks ago while I was on holiday . Afraid they are closing and nothing as yet on what will replace. Maybe time to start a campaign?George07 July 2014Dear Mr CrozierThank you for your web form dated 28th June and for contacting us regarding our pub in Forest Hill.I can confirm a decision has been made to shut the Capitol pub in Forest Hill, I apologise for any disappointment caused.Closing and selling a pub is a difficult decision and not one that is made without considerable thought and debate. We take into account current and potential future trading levels, facilities within the locality (other Wetherspoon pubs and others) and the ongoing rent and maintenance costs.I am afraid I have no further information regarding who it will be sold to.Thank you for contacting JD Wetherspoon.Yours sincerely Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/34352-new-cinema-for-lordship-lane/page/17/#findComment-768594 Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcolmchurch Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 let us wait and see, again the cinema is not completely unfounded, what else will it be? definitely not a church!

Zebedee Tring Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 As Wetherspoons have no further information regarding who it will be sold to, the persistent rumour that it will be converted into a nuclear power station is not completely unfounded Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/34352-new-cinema-for-lordship-lane/page/17/#findComment-768640 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CARLOS THE JACKAL Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Yes it is planned and must be opposed at the moment. It is the same company that run the ritzy and who refuse to pay the living wage. We must fight this unless they start paying their workers a fair wage.

Jeremy Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Does anyone know if the power plant will be paying the living wage? Should we be boycotting electricity?

Earl Aelfheah Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Rather than a minimum wage, how about a statutory relative earnings limit, or maximum wage. Whereby those at the top can only be paid a set multiple of either the median or the lowest salary?

Otta Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just to back Malcolm a bit, my dad told me the other day that he's heard the cinema rumour about the Capitol too, so whilst it is just rumour, Malcolm is not alone in hearing it.Dad also said the Grove was going to be a wetherspoons, and that there was going to be massive development on the Sainsbury's side of London Road, opposite The Capitol.No idea if any of that is true.

Whittler Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Well, the proposed development is hardly massive, and it's in the conservation area so i don't think they'll be able to expand on the site.... a Morrison's 'Local' store is going in to the current M&Co clothes shop on London Rd...

RecorderSue Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Planning permission stage for ED has passed so we should be getting a 3 cinema Picture House in Lordship lane. Just think , instead of driving to Peckham or Brixton we will be able to walk to the local cinema.! I just wish and hope they'll pay all their employees a decent living wage.

BrandNewGuy Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 This from another thread a couple of days ago:"Re: East Dulwich Picturehouse and Caf?Posted by Laur Yesterday, 04:36PMTodays Ritzy news;A long-running pay dispute is set to be resolved after a breakthrough at peace talks. Bectu has said that it will recommend acceptance of a new offer by Picturehouse.Staff are being offered an immediate pay rise from #7.35 an hour to #8, rising in stages to the London Living Wage of #8.80 in September 2015."And here's to everyone in East Dulwich earning a decent living wage - but it's not going to happen any time soon.

ultrauk Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 They seem to be doing a great job at selling memberships. First 1000 gets your named engraved on the building.
