By the way, the collage of tarmac cowpats is from one street alone: our beautiful Promenade, 110m x36m in its main pedestrianised section. That’s how bad this problem has become! That’s why we’ve acted as we have.
We’ve served a s56 notice on @GlosCC to begin the process of bringing our streets back up to standard. We have no desire to go to court but are prepared to. We’d rather GCC took responsibility for the mess they’ve helped to create by bringing our streets back up to standard.

The old lock-up in Lewisham village (the Watch House) was close to the current site of the clock tower.
In 1824, a terrible accident saw a detainee and his brother burned to death inside.

In 1948, Newsreel reported on the late-summer tradition of Londoners going 'hopping' in Kent, cultivating that most essential ingredient in the production of beer.

Fire has been extinguished but new line-side equipment is now being installed at #Brockley. There may be slow introduction of services this evening but currently no trains between Nee Cross Gate and Sydenham. #Overground #Southern #HonorOakPark
🔥 Alongside our friends @LondonFire, our teams are currently on site near Brockley Station, dealing with a lineside fire.
⚡️The fire has damaged the cables that supply the electricity to the railway and the signalling equipment, meaning train services are heavily disrupted in the area.
ℹ️For live updates, please check @SouthernRailUK & @TLRailUK before you travel this morning.
