Sydenham Town Forum

would definitely recommend the Hair Company been going there for years, good haircut good service and good coffee too!!!

sory, just another thought, specificually for sydenham, I would hope that the number of pay and display bays that are installed are enough, as there is a lack of these in Zone E in Catford. If there are none in Lawrie Park Road, there will be issues with clients visiting the dentist, people driving ...

Whilst I am generally in favour of CPZs to stop commuter parking, dangerous parking and rat runs etc to make the streets safer. I would also like to highlight the issues that the local community nursing staff are having. Community nurses, therapists and other social care staff are finding it ...

Do you know what the proposed area is? If it only up to the station area and not Lawrie Park or the surrounding roads, then the problems of commuter parking as in Silverdale will just move to just outside the area causing more hassle there, which is exactly what has happened where I work in Catford ...

Totally agree, the bumps are a problem. I think the way to go is speed cameras, as someone has already said but a mobile camera down here and they would get their monthly quota in one day!!!! I also agree that it is the attitude of other drivers who think it is their right to rule the road and pay ...

hi there, I can recommend CVS in Catford behind Majestics, Bob is the chap and very good he is too. Being female its important to not get ripped off when it comes to cars, and I haven't yet!!! Does MOt and general repairs....not quite Sydenham but...............

yet again, looks like a nasty accident which ended up with the car practically in the front of Lloyds Bank, flattening the advertising hoarding in the process, not sure if this was anything to do with the crossing or what, but I am getting more and more frustrated at the speed that some drivers do ...

It appears no matter what time of day there is constantly cars, buses and lorries speeding, even this morning at approx 8.00 am there was a van going at least 60 whizzed past me..... I sit by my window whilst working on my pc etc and it amazes me the amount of cars which pay absolutely no attention ...

if you live in the Lewisham part of Newlands Park and Lawrie Park Road you can register with the Sydenham Green Group Practice, they have a wide catchment area their phone number 0208 676 8836, there is another GP practice there in the building with a small reception to the right of the main waiting ...

I am sorry to hear of your ordeal, there have been a number of occasions recently when groups of youths have been arguing/fighting near Colvin Close, bottles and bricks thrown. I hope that they find the person responsible.......

They would have had to be driving at a very high speed to have inflicted the amount of damage that car had, ok so no sympathy for the driver himself but I feel for the two friends that were in the car with him, who are apparently, one on life support and one who might lose his leg!!!! all for what ...

I totally agree that the traffic calming usually tends to make things worse. the speeds alert signs such as they use in some roads in Bromley are fairly good as it makes you aware of the speed, but its the attitude that drivers have too, that they rule the road and pay no attention to what is ...

Does anyone else have an issue with the speed of the traffic, especially buses down this road. There was a very nasty accident down here in the early hours of Saturday morning where I think more than one person died, the driver was in a very bad way and not sure about the other occupants and this ...

I totally agree about this crossing. If driving from sydenham towards Cobbs, as the driver involved in the accident was, it is very, very hard to see anyone the right hand side of the road and nigh on impossible if it is wet!! I am constantly slowing down now just in case and may therefore cause an ...
