I know I'm getting older and therefore am probably senile, but I recall Camberwell Green having a rather splendiferous makeover only a few years ago. Indeed my daughter played in the little stream before the council in their wisdom, turned it off.
in st francis' park, under the trees behind st francis' road, it looks like someone has emptied the contents of an alcoholic's house. there's a TV and easy chair and everything, and it's been there for a few years (or maybe it changes, i haven't paid that much attention). So maybe we could do a "house doctor" style makeover on this area and turn it into an alfresco bar for stressed sainsbury's shoppers.

For me it would be the park next to Sainsbury's. I'm not sure if they own it. It's basically filthy and ankle deep in rubbish, sharp beer cans, fag packets and take away food packaging. It never seems to be cleaned or looked after and is getting worse and worse. There's bins in there which nobody seems to use.


It's a nice little area other than that and having the closed in dog run is really handy

I don't think they own it, but they are (or were) responsible for its upkeep. I complained to the council about it a couple of years ago and they told me that. I called, spoke to the manager and it did get cleaned up. Not walked through it recently. Maybe we should all try again?
Hi, if you have a project that you want help with in Southwark, you can email me as the Southwark rep for London Wildlfie Trust.

    • "attack on the tax", I posted a link, how was that an attack? I didn't write the article, so how was that an attack on the proposed tax?  Are you now saying what can and cannot be posted, when did you become Admin(NOT). 
    • Your post was an attack on the tax   I didn’t  address or mention you in my reply. Just pointed  out the problems with the article you then told be I wasn’t invited.  In no way am I bullying anyone. The reverse is true if anything 
    • The problem is, I'm not sure what the going rate is for park land for festivals of this nature. I'm sure they are paying less than outfits pay for access to the big stadia - but these have better facilities and are normally better for public transport. I am also sure that Councils could press for more, and should do so, but of course there isn't really a shortage of council lands to exploit, so these entrepreneurs could go elsewhere. What I would like to know is how much of the suggested £440,000 this year for Southwark is net profit - what are their costs in getting and administering this let? If this is a gross figure then what do they actually have as 'surplus'? But at least we have a starting point now - even if it's a guess I'm thinking it's a reasonably informed one.
    • Looks like owner of Persepolis is opening something late summer in what was The dulwich Beer Dispensary spot…  Excited about that
