beautiful shop interior opposite Nigel Rd SE15 bus stop

[intexasatthe moment]

Have a look ,the interior looks original , wall tiles ,tiles floor ,mirrors .But I could be wrong .

If I'm not ,I can only think that a lot of it must have been paneled over .

It's a hairdressers called Blue Tit . No idea what it's like but they have a gorgeous range of natural hair products and the male hairdresser had beautiful hair !

Honestly worth checking it out for the interior .

Dalston blow-ins...

Not Dalston.

I am reliably told (by estate agents) that these and others are colonisers from the SW postal districts, both north and south of the river.

Yes, it's original, and they've taken care of it in their refurbishment.

Nope. Blue Tit London - Dalston, Clapton, Peckham.

Are you saying that estate agents are not reliable?

does ... not ... compute ...

ed history ,thanks for that .I was sure it must be . it has to have been covered up surely to have survived .

And ,sorry to bore on ....but do you know what kind of shop it would have been originally ? A butchers ?

The Tit's description of "art deco" tiles is a little odd.

I'm pretty sure that is was a dairy the 1950s. But my memory is not always good.

A quick email to the Peckham Society will probably produce the the answer.

Mmm ,dairy seems more likely to me so I think you're memory is probably fine .

See what you mean about "deco" tiles .
