London's a big place and many of you don't know much of it so I thought it would be worth naming some places that are definitely NOT worth a visit. To avoid accusations of bias I have chosen from all 4 points of the compass.


Enfield

Barkingside

Woolwich

Feltham


Please feel free to add...or disagree if you're mad.


yup, I'm bored.

Yes, had some great beers in Plaistow, but it is undeniably a characterless not worth visiting.


Cutting to the chase would east dulwich be worth anyone going out of their way for if they haven't got friends down their for food and drink? plenty of places have cheese and nicknacks surely.


Is their a USP? an unusually high concentration of cookwank perchance?

TOTTENHAM - First time I visited Tottenham was Football and our bus broke down - and when all the Spurs football supportes (&hooligans) had long departed home the Police rounded all 50 of us up from the bus and into a nearby Members only Pub for our own safety from the locals, and then the Police proceeded to circle the block for the next hour in their dog van...

    • Just as one example, the grass in a least some of  the tree pits in Ulverscroft Road appears to have been sprayed. If it's not the council who has done it, then I wonder if someone is trying to kill the trees 😭 although I doubt if that would work, as the council have sprayed tree pits in the past (ignoring handwritten notices by my then very young grandchildren asking them not to spray as they had sowed flower seeds there) 🤬 Grass in the pavement nearby appears to have been neither sprayed nor scraped out. I'm quite confused.
    • They aren't. They are removing them manually, scraping and cutting them out. I've seen them doing it on my road and surrounding roads. I can't imagine that they would have different methods in different parts of East Dulwich.
    • I see. But as I read it, Tesco would still need the agreement of the owners/ leaseholder to submit proposals, so would need Poundland’s cooperation? I suppose we’ll have to wait while this plays out. There’s applications re this site on the Southwark planning portal dating back over 70 years. In 1954, Woolworth’s applied to convert the original 4 shops here (Nos 29-35) into one Woolies but the council refused because the flats above the shops would be lost and there was a local housing shortage following the war. Small businesses being displaced by big chains on Lordship Lane was already a trend back then.
