Half Moon pub to remain closed


Recommended Posts

Sad news that the Half Moon will remain closed for the foreseeable future while Dulwich Estate seek planning permission to convert the upper floors into flats.


I wrote a post about it (and other Herne Hill stuff) here: http://deserter.co.uk/2014/07/is-herne-hill-finished/

I know that alot of pubs have closed in recent years but this article is making alot of negative assumptions.


It's an old building and probably does need a lot of work. As for complaints, anyone who rents those flats will do so in the knowledge the ground floor is a commercial space.

One of my favourite pubs did this in Stockwell (the Albert, if you remember that). Turned the upstairs pool room into flats, spent a bare minimum on the downstairs. Within a couple of years, they had closed the downstairs as well.


The Half Moon should be capable of being a successful landmark pub in the same way as is EDT or the Crown & Greyhound.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
