The inquest into how Lewisham resident Kevin Andre Clarke came to be restrained to death by several Metropolitan Police officers has now started:
Inquest to examine police restraint of black man in mental health crisis Kevin Clarke
Unsurprisingly:
Kevin Clarke death: Mother says son had 'fear of police

Nice to see there's a Lewisham thread here - I was born and raised there; still live in the area 
I've been looking for a more active local community; maybe this'll be it.

They will still be paying the national insurance and pension costs on wages, which could be a fair amount depending on how many staff they have. They might be topping up the furlough to 100% too I guess.

new lewisham history blog that's started recently - first saw it today
longlazylewisham.wordpress.com
latest post includes this 1955 photo
plane must have been about directly over lewisham railway station - this is similar sort of perspective on google earth - st stephen's church and the row of houses leading off bottom left of the photo are still there and the most obvious bits to give perspective.
(also shows how bloody big a gap was left by the V1 that landed on marks + spencers in 1944)

Great news, had been closed for what, 4 years? Maybe longer
A miracle it isn't flats
It's a big pub though, hard to make it work. Antic failed.

Hi everyone, looking for Lewisham residents to complete a short survey about their environmental habits: <ed: nope!>
All respondents will receive a guide on how to be more environmentally friendly and what they can specifically do in the Lewisham borough.
Many thanks!

hmmmm...ive done the survey, had to give postcode and email...was told Id get some kind of eco-report, not got anything....
turns out this survey is from Property Detective <so its data mining for profit. nothing to do with environment.
where gentrifies pay to see how "good" the area they are moving to is
bin ban
feel better about giving the wrong postcode now

Aye like, so it is.
I think there are flats upstairs though.
Hopefully someone will reopen Suttons Radio sooner rather than later too.

yes there are flats above and they are part of the buy out - rental income is going to be part of how to make the venue profitable
these new owners are committed to making this a music pub, but I cant see how thats going to work with the flats above
yeah Suttons didnt last long, barely opened before it closed, i never got to go in

You didn't miss much. It was nicely done up but a bit dead. Disappointing considering how central it is.
