Walking down Oxenford Road at corner of Coplestone Road on Monday, I saw a pile of house clearance rubbish, furniture etc.


A negative envelope caught my eye and when I looked closer there were perhaps a couple of dozen old negatives in a very sorry state - corroded, damp, and stuck together. I managed to clean some of them up and scanned them in and I've posted them on flickr at https://flic.kr/s/aHski33sjD


Some interesting shots of East Street, SE17, Brighton, and some sort of coach trip holiday which looked like a lot of fun. Anyone who has any ideas of who they may have belonged to, where the pictures are of, or any extra info, let me know...

I thought the coach may of come from Nunhead Depot.


Whilst having a search I found this which I thought may be of interest to some ED residents..

Added to clarify not from the period.. A modern pic of a restored museum piece..

I emailed [email protected] about that lot, one of the worst I've seen at that perennial dumping spot, last Sunday the 27th, enclosing some photographs. I trust it's been cleared by now? There was also some old correspondence there linking at least the domestic rubbish to a Copleston Road address that seemed to have been, at least in 2014, a council property.


PS d2a, thanks for just posting the URL rather than displaying them all in the thread.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
