Why is it that Dulwich and Peckham Rye parks are not opened before about 7:30? Some of us are up with the cock at the weekend and, on these light summer mornings, want to use the local parks for physical jerks and general recreational purposes. And yet for the last month or so I've found the gates to both Dulwich and Peckham Rye parks shut at about 7pm This renders me vexed.


Any chance Southwark can open them up earlier?


Or does anyone know a cheeky way in?

Is the gardener's entrance round need the car park, or near that large faux marble fountain just inside the gate?


what about DP? Is that impossible to get into when shut?


I hasten to add my intended activities in the parks are entirely honourable. Running essentially.

You are literally peckhamgatecrasher - love it!

Apparently the official time for opening is 8am(Peckham Rye) but the gardeners would open up on their way in around about 7.On a day when they were shut , someone complained and one of the blokes got the **** hole and decided not to botheropening up early.Though the gate by the car park is usually open early . You can also get in by the yard just have to pull the gate open a bit its not attatched. If enough of us complain to the Parks Dept. they may go back to opening earlier cos its so stupid not to be open early when its light especially when the gates are not usually locked till 9 ish when its dark ! Also many people use the park as a short cut and to have to go the long way round can put at least 10 mins on your jouney. Oh and whats the point of the outdoor gym when you cant get in to use it .

    • Another recommendation for Nick. Copying below the review I have just left for him on Google: We don’t usually leave reviews for people online but are making an exception for Nick. He made fitted wardrobes for our loft conversion and did an absolutely fantastic job. The wardrobes are beautiful. Nick is passionate about producing a quality product, and also one that is bespoke to his clients’ needs. He guided us through the design to establish how we would actually use the space and built something that is fantastic. From start to finish the process was quick and each day he and his assistant Sean left the space tidy. I’m not sure we are easy people to please so the fact we are leaving a 5* review (indeed leaving a review at all) speaks volumes about what a great job Nick (and Sean) did. Nick also built a cupboard for our downstairs bathroom as part of the job and again it is brilliant. We would recommend them to anybody. 
    • Just had a flatpack IKEA wardrobe put together by the dynamic Father & Son team (Victor & Carl) and over the years they have come to the rescue with their quality workmanship and all round great people to work with. https://www.handymaneastdulwich.co.uk Thank you once again.
