Re: Northcote Road Christmas lights and market

Good morning all, I just thought that I would write a note to say a massive thank you to all the local shops who have offered to supply power for the stalls this weekend. One of the biggest logistical challenges we have with the winter event is how to ensure that the market traders can continue to o...

Re: Northcote Road Christmas lights and market

Good morning everyone, I am so sorry for any confusion following my post on 6th October and thanks to Annabel for your post on Thursday. The Hamptons elves have been working tirelessly over the last few months putting everything together, and we are now pretty much there on the organisation front. A...

Re: Planning permission about to expire

Hi Tilly&Roo, It sounds like an obvious question but have you spoken to the council? Unlike many boroughs I've had experience with, Wandsworth tend to be pretty approachable and friendly. As a general rule of thumb, unless your planning permission would be considered quite contentious, they will...

Re: What DO we want on Northcote Road???

Most of the shops on Northcote Road were bought cheaply in the 1970's and early 1980's so generally cost the landlords very little. Once the landlords drop the rent they are stuck with that rent for 20 or 30 years (albeit with marginal rent reviews every 5 years) so their desire to reduce the rent i...

Northcote Road Christmas lights and market

Good morning everyone, I’m delighted to say that the Northcote Road Christmas event planning is well under way and so I thought I would give you all an update. In the past the Christmas event has definitely been a diary entry for many of us. For the last 6 years Northcote Road has had a Christmas li...

Re: What DO we want on Northcote Road???

Hi Julian, The café site is the one I mentioned before, and has had some comments on here. I believe it is a new branch of Park Kitchen chicken restaurant which is a fab local business. As I understand it, the old antique shop (Carey's Antiques) is being extended into by Turquoise travel (who ever t...

Re: What DO we want on Northcote Road???

Good evening all, There are a few empty shops but many of them more by design than by accident. The Holy Drinker has been bought by the restaurant group Made in Italy. Their fit-out has been interminably slow but mainly because they have installed a mezzanine floor. The old Printax site and also Har...

Re: Isla Bike V's Frog

Hi MMmmm, I have two girls, aged 8 and 6 and we have both Frog & Isla bikes. We started off with Isla's mainly because we hadn't heard of Frog bikes and so went along with the many people who recommend Isla's and I'd have to say, have been perfectly happy. Earlier this summer it was my eldest's ...

Re: Considering a big renovation/extension project: advice please?

Hi Pie, Wow, sounds like quite a project!! We went through quite a similar process ourselves a few years ago and given my occupation, deal with these sort of things fairly frequently. As a rule of thumb I would have my own architect and also my own project manager. Yes of course your architect could...

Re: Lola Rojo to close after tomorrow (Friday)

GREAT info, thanks Ballantine - you are my new go-to person for Northcote Road shop info!! It sounds like you have a fair amount of inside information as to the occupiers of the shops so could I ask that if you have the contact details for the new occupants you let me know? As chair of the Northcote...

Re: Lola Rojo to close after tomorrow (Friday)

We seem to be going through a number of changes at the moment - Aspace has gone back to just being online, Dandelion is being redeveloped, Harrys is being redeveloped (the Iris signs on it are just to say that the Iris next door is still trading rather than a second shop), Capsticks is going, Samba ...

Lola Rojo to close after tomorrow (Friday)

I've just been speaking to Christine the owner of Lola Rojo and their last day is tomorrow as they complete to a new buyer on Monday. She will now concentrate her efforts on Rosita down the road which will extend their opening hours. Apparently the new owners will be opening a Caucasian restaurant w...

Re: Belleville catchment area

When both my girls started in reception in BV we were visited at home by their teacher, as were all the other parents so that the teachers could meet them at home before they started in school . Of course it's not an infallible system but it's a pretty good way of weeding out people who are 'living'...
