Er guys...someone died as a result of this. Show some respect?


Also worth reminding anyone new to this fantastic area that despite a some recent tragic events, Barry Road is not the centre of all evil. It's a beautiful street with a park at the end that just happens to be in London where, shock horror, stuff happens.

STUFF HAPPENS???? Two murders in the same road in the space of a month ? Tell me where else, in this ''just happens to be london'', that there have been another two totally unconnected murders last month in the same suburban road?

Well said! I moved from Inner London to The Suburbs 25 years ago and to be fair in the 300 homes in my street I've known 2 attempted burglaries and one actual burglary of a car stereo so yeah" "stuff happens" everywhere, I suppose.(6)


Though I will settle for that in 25 years.


Sorry to hear about anyones's loss.

stuff happens, depends what the stuff is, however the facts speak for themselves and in almost all cases of murder the victim and perpetrator are known to each other, you would need to be very unlucky to be a random victim, it does happen but it is rare. so while the recent events on barry road are disturbing, ed remains a very safe area to be.

From BBC news website:


Man charged with woman's murder


A 64-year-old man has been charged with the murder of a woman who was found dead at a house in south-east London.


The body of Tina Crawford, 45, was found at the property in Barry Road, East Dulwich, in the early hours of Friday.


Police said Phillip Bailey, from the Vauxhall area, was charged with her murder on Saturday.


The man is due to appear before Camberwell Green Magistrates' Court on Monday morning.


The couple were known to each other and lived at the property.

I'm sure there are a few! I don't agree with the point I think you're trying to make here DD. It's sad, tragic to have two in one street within a month. But such is fate. It doesn't mean Barry Road is the badlands and you'd be two pickles short of a sandwich if you honestly think it does.

Exactly my point. At least one murderer was living in Barry Road. And thats one too many for me !! Maybe that makes me a pickle short then hey call me fussy but I prefer to keep my distance from murder scenes !

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
