Late night noise on Kirkdale Sunday night (Zanzibar?)

[rgc]

Morning,

Did anyone else notice shouting, music, revving of cars and car horns coming from Kirkdale at around 2 AM last night (Sunday 12th July) / early Monday morning (Monday 13th July). I was woken up at around 2 AM and the noise continued for at least another half hour. I'm speculating here (I can't see Kirkdale directly from my house), but it did sound reminiscent of kicking out time at Zanzibar that some of us enjoyed in the past.

It was the same last Sunday, where I noticed the noise from about 12.30 AM until 2.30 AM, but I assumed this was a one off party. Does anyone know if Zanzibar is open to / allowed to be open until 2 AM on a Sunday?

For those of you that don't know, Zanzibar is a bizarrely located night club / restaurant on Kirkdale. It was open on some weekends until 5 / 6 AM and was renowned for a variety of anti-social behaviour on Kirkdale and Westwood Hill until the early hours of the morning. Fortunately the club's hours were restricted several months ago and has been largely quiet since (thankfully).

I will be notifying Lewisham council of the noise. If anyone else was impacted you should email Lewisham's noise and nuisance team on: Noiseandnuisance@lewisham.gov.uk

I heard a lot of yelling coming from the area around the petrol station forecourt on Kirkdale around midnight. Sounded like some guy and his girlfriend having a yelling match. Went on for at least half an hour.
