But you know that most of the road reductions were due to lorries hitting the bridge and network rail repairing it.

I’ve always thought it’d be good if they’d take out Caf Prov and use the arch as an extra lane or footpath.

Does the MOT place go through that bit though? The one by the half moon not The Chutney side.

Yeah. They’d have to go too...

That would work! That bridge does divide the two parts of HH shops and food up. I’d forgotten there used to be a signal box above that bit.

I’m so glad you agree! It’s something I’ve had in the back of my mind since forever, but it was never the right moment to tell the world.
Obviously it will never happen but at least we know it should

That arch on the Norwood Road side is big - I’ve been in a couple of times. So you wouldn’t need to get rid of the Cafe Prov site - you’d just come out in the car park by the pub.
MOT place wouldn’t be very happy though and they’re good at what they do.
Also Dulwich Estate will always say no.
Why do I think I heard talk of another arch being opened up on the Milkwood Road side?
Electricity substation works means that they’re digging up most of the semi pedestrianised bit to run the power cables so lots more noise and drilling at the moment.

That's a rather nice looking signal box. Shame it was not preserved.

I think it's going to be a pretentious furniture shop or suchlike.

Someone somewhere said a Scandinavian furniture store or something - but I'm not sure if they were joking.

I’ll take a guess that Moses will take it - he used to have that unit across the junction facing the park - and move his shop from Dulwich Road.

I like the sight of the two guys inside what used to be the Roll & Coffee Bar. They don't look real; more like a pair of ghosts from the 1980s waiting for their sausage rolls and teasA small feature

I wholeheartedley agree with your viewpoint
Ooh they are great. We’ve got a lot of their stuff (from Brick Lane). Is there space for a workshop or will it just be retail?

I love that shop. They always keep some hot lime pickle for me.

There’s also a new convenience store at the Norwood Road end of the parade - where that fishmongers used to be.
