If we keep our eye on the link in ladyruskin's post, all the details will appear in due course once the application has been processed (might take a couple of weeks).


From a resident's perspective, although the new owners might be nice people, the change of use to A3 will inevitably open up the possibility of a restaurant with late-night operation in the future if the property is sold on.


One way around addressing this is for residents to request that a planning condition be required for last orders to be set at 10pm with a closing time of 11pm. This will at least restrict the operational hours of what ever ends up there with a view of protecting the amenity of the surrounding neighbourhood. Any future business who wanted to operate beyond those hours would have to reapply for planning permission which in turn would trigger a consultation.

Will this be before the building work now underway is completed?

I don't know the specifics of this site, but they don't need planning permission to build, it's more for change of use to A1/A3. So my guess is that the planning application will run in tandem with the building works but they can't operate as A3 until they have planning permission, which can take up to 2-3 months as there will have to be a consultation period. Will be interesting to see if they're open by Christmas, although they can operate as retail in the first instance without change of use. The way a cafe operates as retail is that the customer has to order and pay at the till rather than having a waitress come to the table, this is exactly how Gail's operates in the Village.

    • 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.
