  1. Thank you for your comment.
    Please see new posting and update on Porcupine Consultation.

  2. The porcupine is an eye sore and should be turned into a Lidl. Turn it into anything that will benefit the community and provide jobs for local residents.

    Area’s grow because of investments from larger companies and not from more Pubs.

    Cramming more housing int an already built up area is ridiculous. Look how bad it looks right by Mottingham station?

      Grant Dryden’s comments are so true. A decent food outlet at reasonable prices would bring people to Mottingham to shop. The sad state of the Porcupine site cannot be allowed to continue. We don’t have enough school places for more housing.

  3. The committee is also concerned about the situation, much of which is out of our hands. The shops are empty because the landlord from north London doubled the rent for existing tenants. The shopkeepers declined to unite as we advised. We will be watching the planning applications from Lidl carefully. If you have concerns for Mottingham, please join the Committee which is open to all members. Next meeting this month.

  4. Suggest you contact Cllr Hills at Greenwich Council. (Details on Links Page)

    Suggest you report on Fix My Street.
    See ‘Links’ – ‘Councils’ Pages on website.
    Any unwanted items left on the pavement counts as ‘Fly Tipping’ and is reportable.
