i had a look around the new gym in forest hill yesterday, its where the old mcdonalds used to be, it is very well equipped, and is quite large, there is a large basement area where the changing rooms and sauna are with what i was told will be the largest free weight room in the area, they have personal trainers and a a lot of classes planned. My partner became a founder member this month with a joining fee of ?20, don't know when this offer ends but i think the monthy fee is about ?38 a month, i think i will join when i am well enough after a few months of illness as it is quite good for people this end of East Dulwich i can walk there no problem or go on my way back from work via forest hill station.

PS i dont work for them, i am a pastry chef so my job is keeping people fat not thin ;)

BCoffee, they are also redevloping the gym at Dulwich Baths and it looks like its gonna be a really good health centre - once it's actually finished. Sadly won;t be ready for at least a year. In the meantime folk have got to put up with the dilapidated, off-putting conditions there - for pretty much the same price as the spanking new gym at FHill. I'm heading for the Hills.


Spark67: yes the delicious irony of a gym replacing McDonalds! Tidy!

Thanks for all your replies. Does anyone know the name/contact details of the Forest Hill one? I'm not very familiar with the Forest Hill area but know it's relatively close. Have been loking for a gym to join for ages. Have heard about potential changes to the Dulwich Baths one but need something reasonable in the meantime.


Is the FH one close to the station? The joining offer and monthly fee sound reasonable. Much better that the ?120/month quote I'm getting Canary Wharf:-o

Thanks for all your replies! FH gymm sounds perfect, particularly given it's close to the station. Let me know how you get on with signing up, NorthLondoner. Also, it'll be great to know what kind of users they have (professional versus gangster;o)


I look forward to hearing back!

Browncoffee: Fully signed up to Energie in FH. Phone 8 699 4848. Part of a franchised network. Seems ok with decent equipment and lots of classes. Rock bottom prices - ?38 per month.

Bit of a wrench "resigning" from Virgin Active in Streatham - but it's such a long way from the 'hood.


PS. Distinct lack of gangsters. And ho's for that matter.


See you down there!


Pip pip!

      Up the reform

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      The often repeated idea that Reform are the party appealing primarily to working class voters in the north, is not born out by research undertaken by Legatum. It suggests that their voters are overwhelmingly older, more affluent (AB, C1/2), ex Conservative voters, from 'non-London South'. Primary concerns are immigration followed by opposition to green policies and social progress. They mainly seem to made up of the same angry old home county types who have ensured a rarely uninterrupted string of Tory governments for many decades. Don't know whether that research is to be believed or not, but interesting if true and very at odds with the narrative Reform are spinning.

      Cox's Walk new bridge damaged!

      By first mate · Posted

      Wasn't it two ancient oak trees that the contractors were insisting had to be removed to work on the bridge? This was to make movement of heavy vehicles easier. Locals resisted.

      Good places to eat near Rye Lane?

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      Slight crossed wires I think, but either way you are right. The venue in question I referred to as being in Bellenden is 139 Fika which is in Bellenden Road, not Forza Wine, which is in Rye Lane. I talked about Bellenden estate agent baloney here and was completely in agreement with you. https://open.substack.com/pub/eatsdulwich/p/restaurant-review-139-fika?r=8oe6m&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
