since mumtaz shut down the place has never been the same ... for all those lovers of local stores on this forum that was the post office i shall never forget.


i lived in nunhead for about 2 years last century (quite literally), in the bad old days of the P3. for all those who don't remember the P3 you are lucky. it was the bus spotted that graced its' route so rarely there were near riots in elephant when trying to get on. i felt cut off and in the middle of nowhere. i have never really liked nunhead since. when we bought over a year ago i decided to max out on the mortgage and not have to deal with living there again. that said east dulwich was still affordable, just.


sorry but i really just don't like the place. however, did you know that it is london's smallest post code district...

yes it is, also it is due to have a bellenden regeneration - smarten up the main drag of shops. I reckon it is a good bet, however the bellenden area is still excellent value and very close to transport and LL. Trouble is, they are all 3 bed terraces (that's why we have just reluctanctly moved from there)could always get a lovely loft converstion....
Nunhead is a great place. Get involved locally and then you won't have to worry whether it's OK to live here or not. Go to one of the Nunhead Forum, Nunhead Residents Association, Commununity Forum meetings or start something of your own. Lots of things are happening here, and in September there will be another Arts week. Remember, Nunhead appeared in TimeOut recently!
I think Nunhead will rise in terms of popularity if some money was put into regenerating the shopping area and this would need better parking in the eighties the area had a strong community feel but the ara lost many of its focal points due to underfunding by the council however it has potential with some right sensible planning.

    • 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.

This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system.

We are asking all our allies for support as we try and reignite the crowdfunder to reflect the new expensive work that needs to take place, and the gear we need to replace. Thank you in advance for your support so far, and your support going forward.
