As you go in, they’ve opened up the left hand side of what I assume was the original (hardware?) shop to make the front a lot bigger. They’ve moved the bar to the back wall - there’s lots of high stools and tables and what with the big windows and hard floors it doesn’t really feel like pub or bar
It was a co-op supermarket, and then this-that-and-the-other discount store. It opened in 2015 by Antic who had originally wanted a different location on a former hardware shop on 17 Knights Hill, hence the name.
I’m in there now it feels likes a slightly upmarket harvester. I can also see the airport analogy.
So true! I really do miss the old knowles vibe! Plus who decided a white bar was a good idea
Is it this?
Someone got hit by a car about 4ish. Looked really bad. They had a tent thing round the pedestrian that got hit.
Just seen this… sounds grim for the pedestrian involved. Apparently they even sent an air ambulance
Yeah really not a pleasant incident at all. Motorists driving through Tulse Hill and West Norwood really don't pay enough attention given they're driving through a pedestrian filled environment. I can't count the amount of times I've almost been hit crossing on greens by the station or on the Zebra Crossing by Lancaster Av.Just seen this… sounds grim for the pedestrian involved. Apparently they even sent an air ambulance

TfL spending on road improvements has taken a real knock from the covid fares drop and the complete removal of the central government grant. Loads of junction schemes were put on hold in 2019.

It does make you wonder if TfL have a blind spot in their Vision Zero as far as the Tulse Hill Gyratory is concerned. It's such a horrible place to be a pedestrian or cyclist.Article on the tulse hill crash here:

TfL have promised to look again at the gyratory and produce a report by “spring” this year.

They seem to be biased towards doing the zone 1/zone 2 junctions firstIt does make you wonder if TfL have a blind spot in their Vision Zero as far as the Tulse Hill Gyratory is concerned. It's such a horrible place to be a pedestrian or cyclist.
Vision Zero for London
The Mayor's Transport Strategy sets out the goal that, by 2041, all deaths and serious injuries will be eliminated from London's transport network
No, the gyratory is worse than the average south circular junction. Many of us remember the poor lady who was killed a few years back, she was run over by multiple vehicles without stopping.There'd dozens and dozens of equally horrible junctions across the city and a miserly small pot of money to spend fixing them
The South "Circular" has one every mile or so.
TfL are adding two new pedestrian crossings in Streatham (near Gracefield Gardens and the big Tesco) in the next 12-24 months I understand. Definitely not zone 1 or 2. Maybe it's coz it's A23 it gets more priority? Although I remember more deaths/seriously injured at Tulse Hill than these spots (anecdata obvs).....it really needs sorting. How many more will it take
Jasjot Singhota was killed on Thurlow Park road on the south circular (just after the railway bridge) not on Christchurch Road as stated in the article.Article on the tulse hill crash here:

No, but someone got confused on twitter (I think) and suggested two separate crashes on Tuesday last week, but it was one.Were there 2 separate collisions on the same day?
