redrouge,


I've never seen a pre-1914 photo of that stretch of Lordship Lane. It could be that it is because there was "nothing" there worth photographing (except fences, hedges and trees). When the houses were built after World War One the custom of routinely taking street scenes of of domestic housing had near enough died out.


However...


Here is a (ropey copy of a) photograph taken from the top of the East Dulwich Fire Station showing the junction of Court Lane and Lordship Lane.


MacRoban

Macroban, you tantalise us with this drip feed of pics from what seems to be a bottomless photo treasure chest. Any chance of you publishing your archive somewhere so we can wallow in the nostalgia of East Dulwich before the age of traffic jams and ugly post-war flats?

    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
    • To be fair, anything which waylays someone on their way to Palma Nova or Lloret de Mar from spending even more pre-flight time in Spoon's surely has some merit? I think losing a few quid on a litre of Bacardi and 200 Benson & Hedges Gold seems a reasonable price for society to pay. ,
