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..

Even before my time..


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.

    • When I had a property with a basement there would often be a pool of water in the centre. I was told it was related to the fluctuating height of the water table in the area (se22) and would not become a problem and the only way to get rid of it would be to get the whole place completely tanked. 
    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
