Gaz,

Thanks - agree the swimming pool would help, but then again it would be a shame to lose the old location. I guess there are pros and cons, but great for the area that it looks like the funds are available for a pool.

I've written to Nero about plans for expansion (someone on the forum did ...

All,

Had a look in Tesco last night. It was very busy at the time, and I am impressed with the variety of their goods. I can look out my living room window into the shop and there was still activitiy late at night - so if local businesses are to survive they will need to up their game!

I'm sure ...

It's still open as far as I know but have never been in!

Does anyone know if the Windmill is selling for ...

All - thanks for responding.

Maybe I am being a bit too optimistic here, but I do still think that part of Kirkdale has potential. I personally don't think it's too far from Sydenham or Forest Hill stations (look how far East Dulwich Station is from Lordship Lne for example).

The pine shop never ...

Kirkdale developments/Tesco

Hello all,

New to the forum so nice to meet you.

Just to say that as much as I don't like big corporations like Tesco I do think this is a positive sign for Kirkdale, Sydenham and the surrounding area. Hopefully it will encourage better quality retail outlets around this specific area. Costcutter ...
