This junction is closed due to an unsafe building and dangerous scaffolding at 373 Lordship Lane.


A roof collapsed causing the shop owner to be injured. The london Fire Brigade were called and Southwark Building control called out. They have highlighted the scaffolding is overloaded and dangerous as well.

The shop is on a long lease and the freeholder clearly hasn't managed the building works properly.


Southwark Building Control are organising an engineer to advise how to make the scaffolding safe, then ensure the works take place and then reopen the junction.


Any problems or concerns please get in touch with me.

Oh my goodness ! Poor guy!

I really hope he isn't badly injured . Poor man as he has to move from his previous location to try and run a business in a building with ongoing work that was obstructing his shop and losing him customers and business .

Some people are just truly inconsiderate .

I hope he has a speedy recovery .

He used to be in the shop by sainsburys but has relocated to the corner shop next to the funeral place and its impossible for them to earn a living with the scaffolding in the way .

I'm glad he is at home and it wasn't worse .

Do we know what purpose the scaffolding is serving? Seems to have been up for ages with very little work going on. Similarly in that little strip, what is happening at the old french place? There seemed to be a lot of activity a few months ago, but that seems to have stopped.

Adding this post to say the guys from the old shop & Post Office have been serving the community long before Sainsburys Local appeared. Its previous incumbent was a motor spares outlet


Also curious as to why the feverish work on the former Le Moulin place has stalled......


As an aside to the building work abutting the shop in question.....


In the middle of last year, i was picking up some dry cleaning from the chap on the other corner, whilst a very large Metropolitan Police vehicle appeared to be delivering re-conditioned bricks to the workmen on site at this place


I didn't imagine it because passers by were stopping to look

I was only speaking to them in there new shop last week and they was saying how they have tried everything to try and do something ref the scaffolding and how the council had just feed him rubbish and had no assistance...

I think the council will have to answer some questions now


hope Singh makes a speedy recovery him and his family are so nice I was happy for them when they got there new premices as where they was before the landlord was a scrooge

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
