Due to this topic being excessively long, a new 2024 "New Shops in Dulwich / Peckham" has been opened here. Please continue the discussion there.

Recommended Posts

Can't accurately remember, but thought it was one of those shops between the post office and the bank.


Steveo suppose the pronounciation depends on if you are old ED or new ED, bit like the supermarket, is it lidaallls or is it lidells?


nxjen Not forgetting Folletts record shop along there

Although I don't have a pooch, I visited the new dog shop on Northcross Rd out of interest and it was super-cute, with an unusual collection of vintage and luxury dog items. The owner was very nice and had a charming little grey dog in the shop called Edie who was a real sweetheart. The shop had only been open two days.


Though people may miss the sweet shop, I think we should try to keep a positive attitude toward all local small businesses, even if they may not be to our taste.

Several new shops are due to open/opened in Nunhead Lane/Evelina Road. According to our new local paper 'The Peckham Peculiar' there's a new micro pub scheduled and there's also a new retro shop selling furniture (not sure if this is the same as Papa Bear), but Nunhead Lane is buzzing at the moment what with Banbuni doing brisk trade and recently opened Papa Bear retro furniture.


I must say Nunhead has all of the basics; a butcher, a baker, a..... (you can get candlesticks from the pharmacy), fishmonger, grocery shop, pharmacy, small supermarket, hairdresser, florists, carpet shop, ironmonger, 3 takeaways (2 Caribbeans, Portugese, Chinese, Indian) and the essential 3 pubs, so more or less everything you need in one short strip of lane.

Well, we did have a restaurant, but trade wasn't what it should be and it closed, that's wehre we now have the Caribbean takeaway, where you can eat in. The Portuguese takeaway expanded to eat in as did Bajan Spice and Banbuni has an eat-in section and we have the large Cafe near the bridge. I know what you mean though, no real dedicated restaurants at the moment.

A few doors down from the post office (towards the station). i.e. on the other side of the road to Asda.

"I noted a Traid charity shop in place of the robber loan shop near Boots in Peckham. A definite indicator of Peckham's upward mobility :-)"


I noticed some building work going on on one of the bigger units. Hadn't registered it was the ex-dodgy loan place. Thank god that's gone.

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
