78 and 363 bus stops

[Sue]

I need to go to Asda in the Old Kent Road tomorrow.

Theoretically I can get a 78 or 363 bus, but it looks as if the bus stop at East Dulwich Road/Peckham Rye may be closed. I don't know why, but I assume it may be due to gas or water works.

Does anybody know if it is just this bus stop, or are other bus stops (or the routes) affected? 

I don't want to get a nasty surprise tomorrow, as I have an appointment, so it's time critical.

Yes the bus stop at what was The Kings Arms I believe remains closed, 

However the stops at the Heaton Arms (no youngster here) is open.

Easiest way is a 63 or 363 to Peckham Hill street and change for the 78 which takes you directly to the front door or as good as.

Thanks jazzer, jazzer,  Jazzer 😀

I don't know either of those pubs, believe it or not, so I will google the Heaton Arms, thank you (and thanks for the tip about the easiest way!)

ETA: Well, I googled it and apparently it was demolished in 2005 🤣 but I guess it was somewhere near Heaton Road.

ETA again: It looks like I can get a 63 or 363 from the stop near the end of Barry Road, so assuming that's open that would be easier.

I remember both, many, many years ago. 

And the Kings Arms was at the junction of East Dulwich Road and Peckham Rye, it was huge and was converted to flats. Oh those were the days.

Ah, I  remember the Kings Arms I think, though had forgotten the name.

Wasn't it some kind of club?

It was a double fronted pub

I too had an appointment at ASDA last week and walked to the bus stop at Nigel Road where I caught a 78 all the way through.
