The existing tenant needs Dulwich Estate permission to assign the lease (not to be unreasonable withheld) but they seem to support it - no doubt it's a sure way to secure the rent.


I have been told that DE has already insisted on some changes to Sainsbury's original layout/design. There is currently no planning application for a new shop front with Southwark but this will come in due course.


For deliveries, because it is the same sort of shop, the Council will have to accept the existing situation - unloading in the street, and parking likewise - it's as now.


The only planning application will be for the shop front - and loading/parking is not part of that. If there is an application for a different 'use class', there will be a chance to comment.

what a shame its not going to be waitrose lol. I'm joking !

i'm fed up with all of them, everywhere you turn a flaming tesco express or sainsbury local has popped up.

I to thought it was very small, how much money do these locals take, or is it just about having a street presence.

Extract from the latest edition of Dulwich Society eNews:


"Sainsbury?s comes to Dulwich: The Dulwich Estate has confirmed that Sainsbury?s will be taking over from Shepherds at 88 Dulwich Village. They are likely to open early in the New Year."

Anyone know what might replace the Post Office at No.84 when it moves to the Pharmacy? The new Sainsburys will presumably put pressure on the newsagent at No. 86 which may also then go. Would the Estate allow Sainsburys to expand into these units? Surely not...

Surely yes. They don't give a shit. The bigger the company the higher rents they can charge.


There goes the neighbourhood.

What a shame, I flippin' hate Sainsburys local (and Tesco express....and all the others). In my experience it seems good at the time (convenient etc), but then becomes repetative and boring- plus all that crowding in narrow aisles, fruit and veg all pre-packed, squeezing around shelf stackers, no bread left, self scan tills that NEVER save you time because some item doesn't scan.....etc! And it's not even a money saver!


The independent places will be pushed out

    • Exactly the same thing happened to me a few years back; they were after my Brompton. Luckily there were only 3 of them so I managed to get away and got a woman to call the police, then they backed off, but not after having hit me in the back of the head first. Police said next time just give them what they want, but I sure as hell wasn't just going to hand over my bike to them!
    • In case anyone is renovating or stripping out an old kitchen, I am looking for a base kitchen unit or carcass to house an oven for a temporary set up kitchen.   Also looking for a run of worktop at least 180 cm long if anyone is disposing of something like this, I would be happy to collect.   thanks   Mila
    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
