Don't know of one though I do seem to remember someone trying to organise a game of boules in the distant past. I have thought (and this is from memory) that the area in Dulwich Park where there is/was a sandy stretch between the grass and the road would be ok for boules. This would be on the far side of the park if you entered from Court Lane (I think it's called). Near where the crap tennis courts are as opposed to the newer ones.

I've played on the sandy stretch in Dulwich Park that AM refers to - it's ok, not perfect and you tend to get in the way of joggers and suchlike.


Brockwell Park has the huge redgra football pitch which we've adopted as our home turf and is a great terrain as it can vary quite a lot within the space of a few metres and so keeps you on top of your game...


Otherwise, there's Cleaver Square in Kennington, which although not the best quality terrain, has the bonus of a lovely pub and a lot of regular players.


Bermondsey Square also a has a purpose built strip of terrain, though only big enough for 1 game.


I seem to remember that The Dog had a piste in its garden some many years back, but this has long been replaced by tables and chairs.


Please post back if you find anywhere else.

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
