Looks for 'like' button

Peckham has always been its own unique place. Whatever community has decided to make it their home, that pioneering community spirit, rooted in its rural history has always held firm and set it apart from other 'villages' in London. Whatever anyone thinks of its present guise or its evolving guise, I do hope this will always be true. It's not the new anything, it's itself.

If Peckham was likened to anything it would definitely be more Shorditch than Brixton.

Shorditch became 'cool' because of its popularity with artists and creatives and start-up buisinesses.

Brixton has never had that art scene going on, more of a foodie bar scene.

      Stolen mobile phones - where do they go?

      Another excellent article from Jim Waterson's London Centric reporting https://www.londoncentric.media/p/kitchen-foil-and-algerian-markets?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email Interesting that there seem to be favoured and repeated routes for phone snatching for particular thieves.  Seems ED might be one of them ☹️

      Clapham to Dulwich Advice

      Anywhere near the Overground/Windrush due to its excellent transport links.  You will get larger place in SE23 for example that will give you enough spare cash for private school if that's what you really want but states schools generally good, reflecting the demographic  Easy to get to the bustling streets of East Dulwich but in ten years see what happens to Forest Hill centre.  The whole of the area is full of green spaces. Access to East Croydon for days out in the South Coast

      Could East Dulwich or Forest Hill work? Some properties on Underhill Road and Wood Vale have large gardens e.g.  https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/161079866#/?channel=RES_BUY  You'd be close to the Horniman, Dulwich Park and Peckham Rye. Transport might not be what you're looking for though e.g. a 15 minute walk to Forest Hill station for the East London line or mainline into London Bridge.

      I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't.
