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).

    • Whilst I agree, I have been thinking about this recently in relation to some of the other posts on here about anti social behaviour. We are all products of our upbringing - our experiences at home, school and beyond - plus whatever we have inherited genetically which might affect our behaviour (the nature/nurture thing). So in this case, if people haven't been brought up to love and appreciate trees and other wild things, plus as you say they may be deeply unhappy (or have other undiagnosed issues) it's easy to see how they could have ended up doing this. Also, it's possible they had quite low intelligence and didn't really grasp what they were doing and the effect it would have on so many other people. But that's just surmise and possibly completely wrong. From what I've read about it, they seemed to be two mates egging each other on, like two big kids. I'm not for a minute excusing what they did, and it's right they should be punished, but I really hope they might get some sort of rehabilitation in prison (it would  be appropriate to have them do some kind of community service like planting saplings, wouldn't it, or working in woodland conservation). And the same goes for phone robbers and shoplifters (rehabilitation, not planting saplings), though for SOME  shoplifters there might also be other issues at play, not excluding poverty. Sorry Jasonlondon,  I've gone off at a real tangent here, lucky it's in the lounge! Oh oops I've just noticed it isn't. Sorry admin. Oh, and then there's a whole philosophical discussion to be had about free will and determinism ..... 🤣🤣🤣
    • Thanks! I'll find out in a few weeks when I get the results! It was one of those disconcerting things where a disembodied voice keeps booming  at you to breathe in and hold it, then breathe normally. Apart from that it was OK, all completely painless. I imagine there will be quite a few people going from ED, though I presume it covers the whole Southwark area
