Post Office Closure 8 Woolwich Road SE10 0JU
The Post Office is currently consulting about a proposal to close the post office in Annandale Road. Although this is strictly outside the Westcombe Park area, it was the designated alternative post office when the one in Station Crescent was closed. As such, it is the nearest/most convenient office for many residents, particularly the elderly and infirm who do not relish the climb up a steep hill to the strangely misnamed ‘Westcombe Hill Post Office’ (a.k.a Dave & Ginas’s), or the queues when they get there. Given the big housing expansion in the Woolwich Road area, it seems very likely to exacerbate the congestion already experienced in the alternatives (the queue was outside the door in Dave & Gina’s today). Parking is relatively easy in Annandale Road.
Anyone wishing to object to the closure should contact Anita Turner, Network Development Manager [sic], c/o National Consultation Team, FREEPOST, Consultation Team or e-mail consultation@postoffice.co.uk
The consultation deadline is 2nd April

Council Plans For Your Future – Have Your Say
The Council is currently preparing its Core Strategy document, which will set the foundation for the Local Development Framework. This is the successor to the 2006 Unitary Development plan (UDP).
In 2006 the last UDP downgraded Blackheath Standard from the fourth largest District Shopping centre in the borough to a local centre, removing much of the protection that small retailers in Old Dover Road had previously enjoyed. It also quietly removed ‘Community Open Space’ status from part of the grounds of Mycenae House, even though it was in an area of public open space deficiency, where it was official Council policy to increase the provision of public open space and improve access.
The Council says it wishes to involve residents from the earliest stages of creating this new document. To achieve this, comments are invited on the key planning issues affecting the borough and the options for addressing them. Questionnaires can be completed online, or downloaded from http://tinyurl.com/24gm5m
Comments must be submitted before 7th April. Vigilance is important to ensure Westcombe Park does not suffer further setbacks in the new plans.
