They were the result of a Cleaner, Greener, Safer bid several years back. Quite a fuss at the time as coloured patterns originally proposed then changed to classic photos of the area. Great that UK Power Networks allowed them to be attached to their building.


If anyone has other old photos of the area let me know so we can consider finding another location to place some. Ore for public viewing.

I love these photos too.


What I'd love to find (and wonder whether the Great Exhibition still have it?) is 2 photos that used to hang in the CPT, One of the pub with a portrait of an old landlord in the corner. Not sure when this was from, but think it probably dated from the 50s. Then another similar thing from the 80s, with the then landlord Brian in the corner, and all the old regulars outside the pub. Would love to see that again.


Don't THINK my dad was in it, as he was probably inside, behind the bar at the time.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
