turns out this survey is from Property Detective <so its data mining for profit. nothing to do with environment.

Hi, thanks for filling out the survey, we very much appreciate it. We have tried to be as transparent as possible and the fact the survey is run by Property Detective is made quite clear on the home page… Green UK and in the short Ts and Cs that respondents have to look at before starting. That said we will take your feedback on board and look to improve this aspect.

This initiative is part of our CSR – the (anonymous) data we collect will be used in our reports to create an environmentally friendly index, which alongside some of our other data (from Office of National Statistics, Ordnance Survey, The Police, Land Registry, Census etc.) helps home movers and businesses research an area. The data collected will also be used, alongside other data-sets, to push local government to do better such as improving information as to what can be recycled, improving bin collections, offering subsidies for green home grants, creating more incentives for sustainable / green transportation etc. As a nationwide company, we think we are in a good position to do this and effect change.

Respondents can receive – and you should have got this if you’ve given a correct email – a PDF with advice on helping them be more environmentally friendly on an everyday basis and, especially, within the Lewisham community. If you haven’t received this and you are happy to send me your correct email address to greenuk@propertydetective.com, I would be happy to forward this on for you.

Many thanks

That's cool, they've obviously been doing quite well for themselves with their expanded garden.

yes...but first occasional noise complaint coming in ive heard.
would have to say its become a major venue recently, some big names passing through
the inside has had a serious rework (partially ongoing) inside too - expanding the stage and dancefloor
...but again, its created some sound leakage as a result
fingers crossed it isnt too much of a problem

I was wondering when the noise complaints would start, ive noticed they've been doing some quite big events of late, including all day & night psy trance and old skool rave nights where all the windows/fixtures + fittings are audibly rattling from outside on the street. As you said, lets hope the noise complaints don't ruin it, it is Lewisham after all :p

I was a bit pissed off at their continual prices hikes on drinks, a pint of Staropramen is now £6, but when they bring a fucking train carriage into the garden you kind of think its justified.

did Dennis Bovell dj on Gladdy's?

Yeah he did, they took it in turns - Id actually say Pap Face + D'Oxman from Dub Vendor played the best sets
Only thing is i didnt go to any of other sounds - was too nice there - lawn part style!

We popped down for a little bit for some jungle at Unit 137. That bass was like medicine 😎 Wish we could have stayed longer and done the whole trail…
 
Also aaja had moved from an arch to take over the bus next to Birds Nest, they're calling it the snake pit now, it's great, a massive improvement. They're lovely people and deserve the support.

Not my photos;

Oh, didn't know the bus had changed. Sadly that site is due to be redeveloped though, along with every other site around the birds nest. I'm not sure how the birds nest is going to survive as a gig venue.

i mean there are incomplete flats around it already, but are you saying theres more to come right there?
 
on tweeter today (this account posts up old photos of places round the Lewisham patch most days)



must be some time around late 80s, after the co-op shut down (i have only a vague memory of the building being an indoor market thing) and while army + navy / house of fraser was still in business
