Have Your Say in the Restoration of Nunhead Cemetery East Lodge

The Friends of Nunhead Cemetery (FONC) and Southwark Council have developed a survey to find out your views on the proposed facilities and activities which they would like to make available in the restored The East Lodge.  They are keen to get as much feedback as possible on this amazing project and the survey is available at: https://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/environment-leisure/east-lodge-restoration-and-activity-planning/

Southwark Council plans to turn the currently derelict East Lodge at Nunhead Cemetery into a café and offices. The crumbing Grade-II listed East Lodge is considered as "at Risk" by English Heritage after being damaged by a fire in the 1970s and is currently propped up with scaffolding. 

The East Lodge is currently covered in scaffolding: mylondon.news


The Friends of Nunhead Cemetery [FONC] support the plans. “FONC fully supports the overarching proposals for the restoration of the East Lodge and has been part of the East Lodge Project Board which has contributed to the development of the current proposals.”

But: “FONC believes that allocation of internal space for a café operation should not take up floor space to the detriment of community facilities.”
