constant beeping noise by goose green (not the traffic!)

Has anyone else noticed the rather annoying beeping noise that can be heard by goose green or know what is causing it? - maybe i'm just being overly sensitive but i don't have super-hearing!


Whatever it is beeps about every 30 seconds and has been going on constantly since the weekend. We live on east dulwich road and can hear it from inside our flat, even with the TV on! It's possibly a faulty alarm or something but it's difficult to pinpoint exactly where it's coming from and it doesn't seem serious enough to warrant complaining the council -does anyone have any ideas?

Human triangulation? Get a couple of mates (more if possible) start at various ends of GG and LL, and walk towards the noise. For full effect, walkie talkies might be required.


Not sure if this is an effective/practical suggestion, but it would at least narrow the area down a bit?

I used to live on Camberwell Road and the same thing happened... one day a really loud constant beeping noise started and it drove all of us in my flat mad as we could hear it inside flat, 24 hours a day. Nothing would drown it out. Turned out it was a device that had been attached quite high up on the building that beeped each time a bus went by, a bus counter! Never knew who put it there (council maybe or bus company) but we moved to ED before we got to the bottom of it.. it was a nightmare so i sympathise.

Thanks for the posts and suggestions - the source has been found (a neighbour's flat and upper floor which explains why it was so difficult to locate) and yes it turned out to be a smoke alarm low battery (neighbour returned from a few days away and sorted it but was very apologetic to anyone affected).

    • FredMarsh Started conversation: 6 minutes ago I must agree ! Shopping in Sainsburys Dog Kennel Hill has become very unpleasant ! The erection of coral fencing  to herd us all in one direction so that we can be observed by security prior to getting into the "shop" is quite horrible. The fresh meat counter has gone . The fresh fish counter has gone. The fresh cheese counter has gone. Most of the staff have gone ! Just a couple of attended checkouts left,  sometimes just the one with people waiting quietly inline But most people are herded into the payment coral and wait just as long to do a redundant cashiers job. unload your own shopping, place your bag in the right position so that it can be weighed and the quietly pick each item you are about to purchase , look for the barcode and pass the item across the scanner. Then put item in shopping bag.  What could be easier or more efficient ? If something goes wrong or you are trying purchase alcohol, just look round nervously, not wanting to make a fuss. If nothing happens start waving to the overworked member of staff in a sainsburys uniform  running up and down looking after a few dozen self service checkouts Don't forget to take your receipt (piece of paper that will be screwed up and discarded discreetly  shortly afterwards )  It's essential to present your receipt in order to escape the coral. There's nothing pleasant about Sainsburys any more. ! Why do I go there? Because I can get the whole thing over with and not get a parking ticket !! And NO !   I'm 77 completely knackered and am not going to get a bike

    • We do not go there anymore, it used to be a pleasant experience, but now shoppers are made to feel like criminals and the prices are not great. The till receipt gates to stop us nicking stuff do not work half the time - I would rather shop somewhere that makes me feel welcome. We also want to support our local independents, so we are trying to eat cheaper using less costly ingredients and buy local - it's a good way for us also to lose some weight! Veg and pulses.....and less booze 😞
    • Has seemed really empty over the past few weeks, with hardly anyone in the store on Thursday lunchtime, have I missed something or are people shopping somewhere else?
