Tulse Hill news, chitter chatter and gossip

Im interested in how much of the building will be used, since the White Hart was a relatively small corner pub. Will the upper levels be used?
 
I have heard that there is to be a roof terrace to give outdoor seating. Is that right?
That would be ace. I was looking at satellite pics earlier to check if the property could allow for a back garden, which doesn’t look like from the Google Maps pic…

On Google maps it looks like a flat roof at the back, but it would be on the third story. So bit of a hike up there unless they'll be an upper bar. Probably would be a bit of a pokey smoking den if it went ahead.
 
Excuse me if I'm out of area, but I saw a scurrilous allegation on Twitter which said Cllr Marcia Cameron owned a right-to-buy property which she rents out - presumably at market rent.

She's running again. Is it true wot was on Twitter? - and if so is this form of landlordism now the accepted norm for Labour councillors?
Not scurrilous. She bought her flat on Brailsford Rd through RtB, now rents it out while flitting between a property she shares with her boyfriend, & her mum's place on Effra Rd.

Three years later.

One murdered child.

Four arrests.

No-one charged (to date).

Many people traumatised.


Anyone with information knows what to do.

Condolences to all those who continue to be affected by the murder of this child exactly four years ago.
 
Just how bloody long is the bus stop opposite the Tulse Hill Hotel going to be allowed to be suspended due to the new development’s building work? It must have been the best part of a year now if not longer.

And given the remarkably slow progress of the construction work (I might not be an expert in the field, but I know for a fact I have seen plenty of new buildings structurally completed in less time, and this one is still a bloody skeleton), it feels like it’ll be many additional months before we get the bus stop back. Are they secretly building a nuclear bunker in there?

And why the fuck couldn’t they just moved the bus stop a mere 10 metres back if they knew the works were going to take this long, even if as a bare temporary sign?
 
Just saw Lambeth Police twitter tweet out that they were called out to a shooting at 9.40 tonight. The victim is on hospital and they await an update on his condition
 
Good news about progress at the Queen of the South.

The development opposite the THH is on the other hand is starting to ring mild alarm bells. Apart from the extraordinarily long time the whole thing is taking already, I haven’t noticed anyone working at the site for a while. And I’m excluding the Christmas period.
 
Scaffolding is indeed coming down and we are 4-6 weeks from opening fingers crossed! We've been contending with an awful lot of build issues, have given the whole building new foundations, a whole new roof, a completely new internal structure and that's before we even got to the design so it's very much a labour of love but we CANNOT WAIT to show you all the love and hard work that's gone into it and hope you love it as much as we do.

If you'd like Brixton Buzz to do an 'in progress' feature or some pre publicity, send me a message!

Really excited to visit. I'm a fan of their Peckham pub already

Good to see they will show football (but then I guess some people might not be so chuffed about that).

Indeed, it will be healthy to have some decent competition in the area for The Railway, the hotel is a very boring place to drink, Knowles isnt too bad but i have never really warmed to it for some reason.

Haven’t even tried Knowles yet. Nothing against it- I reckon there’s something about the layout and design of the place that subconsciously tells my mind ‘this is not a pub’.
 
Knowles has a nice beer garden and I rate the food there. But yes it does almost feel more like a restaurant than a pub.

Really keen on the football being shown at QotS. Not that I get out that much these days, but it's nice to have the option.
 
It does feel far too sterile, it's popular with mums with prams and toddlers, which isn't everyone's vibe, myself included. It's cheaper than The Railway though, especially their own brand Portobello beers. Worth noting The Railway does do cheaper beers in the week daytimes, but after 5 or 6 and on weekends it becomes Zone 1 prices.

Some of the prices at the Railway border on rip off.
