Parking in Herne Hill

[Sue]

Admin, please move if in wrong section.

I have a load of books to take to the Oxfam book shop in Herne Hill. It's opposite the Half Moon pub at the bottom of Half Moon Lane.

It would be two trolley loads on the bus or walking, and I've already done that once this year! And books  are very heavy! 

Is it possible to park nearby, does anyone know? There are so many restrictions these days, and I don't want to risk a fine.

Maybe call ahead and get one of the staff to meet you at the car and take them in for you

There are parking spots on the same side of Half Moon Lane and on Eynella Rd, which is the nearest side street.

Parking is only restricted to residents only between 12 to 2.00 Monday to Friday. But you can't park north of Stradella Road.

Pretty sure you are allowed to park north of Stradella road, outside of the restricted hours (12-2 weekdays): https://streets.appyway.com/lambeth 

Unless you mean it's difficult to find a space, which may be the case.

There is also a parking bay outside the shop. Max stay 1 hour

Sorry, yes, you can park but it's unlikely you will find a space. I meant to say 'you can't park with any certainty' - and if you go past Stradella Road getting back to where you can park is a bit of a bind.

Deleted as I've just repeated what has already been said!

Thanks, I'd thought about that, but I'd still have to park, and it's very near a bus stop.

Good idea to call the shop and see whether/when there may be less busy times to go, thanks.

Worth calling ahead as sometimes they can’t accept large donations
