The Educational Finance Agency appointed their technical team earleir this month. They're now working on the design and Project Plan. My understanding is that they'll submit planning applciation early summer after consulted with the neighbouring area.

Hopefully demoiltion will occur in parallel once plans submitted.

Building then starts early Autumn.

What do you mean by both police stations? Only the Lordship Lane police station is going to a school. Or, am I missing info in another police station and another school?

Gosh, I'm struggling to see all the flats plus 5 four bedroom houses fit on that site! They'll be hideously small .... And another plan for basements approved! Completely driven by money hungry developers trying to squeeze as much money as possible out of the site. We'll end up with another Toy Town development like the one on the corner of Barry and Underhill.

Apologies. My mistake. Only one cop shop not two.

Hi unlurked,

I wouldn't call a 4,000 person petition to save the former East Dulwich Police station losing it without a fight.

The first proposals to close it were from Val Shawcross and Ken Livingstone. But ironic that it was closed by Boris Johnson on a campaign ticket of not closing this police station without providing a proper alternative.


But once closed June 2013 it's then a matter of getting the best possible use for the site. WE need more local schools. So after a lot of work we've ensured it's going to be used for a new primary school rather than housing aggravating the need for more schools.

Haha. Everytime you attempt to try to defend lib con dem complicity your 'facts' get more and more elaborate and distorted! Next week you would have chained yourself to a cell door in your committment to save the cop shop. Lol. Anyway, my earlier mistake was interpreting "old police station" as indeed the old station on CPR, and not the new station on LL. That is because i'm a long term ED resident and not a seagull resident - fly in, make lots of noise, shit on the area and fly off again.

It's just the relentless cramming of every tiny bit of space. Next we'll have cases made for building up since there'll be no horizontal space left-especially if back gardens begin to be sliced and diced by developers.


Recently went past Nine Elms and shocked to see Boris' grand vision if a skyscraper tunnel rapidly realised. No more views of the river-all sold up to international developers.

The density on the site will be 525 habitable rooms per hectare ,much higher than Southwark's recommended 200-350 .

http://planningonline.southwark.gov.uk/DocsOnline/Documents/341017_1.pdf


But the room sizes all meet the reguirements and apparently high density is ok if the standard of the design is exemplary .


Though how ones balances a largely subjective criteria against an absolute ,I don't know .

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.            
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.
