Welcome to our area! I live in Nutbrook St just over the roofs of Amott Rd. We are a special enclave, not Peckham nor East Dulwich nor Peckham Rye, but right between all three. It was a big local secret till the East Dulwich Forum was invented and people started to tell their stories about it! When you are settled in, I'd love to come and meet your fostered cats, and talk to you about the cat fostering. Can you PM me so I can explain my interest and set up email contact?

i just moved to ondine road about 3 months ago and am really happy there! i was also a little worried as moved from a v v safe bit of clapham, but am absolutely loving it. have had no hassles at all (tho admittedly if its after 10 i would prob take a taxi from peckham rye station) and i just love the way this area is a real mix of people (after all the hoorah henrys of clapham with their generic ysl polo tops tucked into chinos :)) Neighbours are particularly lovely and helpful. Gowlett serves a good pint and amazing pizza. Enjoy!

You do live in Peckham though. ; )

Your're in a far better area to be honest... just call it Peckham though : )

Can you believe it? The landlord of our place now has emailed offering to let us stay! However, we emailed him 4 weeks ago and when he didn't reply we put down a deposit on the Keston Rd house - plus, everyone's been so lovely about Keston Rd that we're actually looking forward to moving there.


However, it does mean that I have to give up fostering cats so if anyone can help with offering a foster home for any RSPCA cats that would be fantastic - I have 2 lovely ladies at the mmoment, Tuppence and Moley, black and white and fantastic. We also have Mousey, a gorgeous, long haired tortoiseshell and white 15yr old who we love to bits. Please let me know!


thanks

morning all,


further to this topic: i am interested in a property in the bellenden area of peckham, on nigel road. now i know the topic of Bellenden has been covered a few times before on this forum, but some of the forums replies by members appear quite a few years old now, and i wanted more 'up-to-date' feedback if i may? now i realise some of you will say its great, and equally some of you will say its not but what i wanted was more specific information on the nigel road/relf road area, or should i dare to say "east bellenden", lol? i trust my instincts and i really like how it looks, but i have heard rumours of some of the roads around there being used as rat runs - what are your thoughts?

Some of the roads there are cut throughs particularly Nigel Road, Nigel Road itself is not bad house-wise but another consideration is you may have trouble parking as it's pay and display and often very fully parked

    • DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?     
    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.
