Today, work has finally started on converting the former dairy site on Rosendale Road #HerneHill into flats. It ceased to operate in 1981 and was later used for storage until it fell into decay. The facade is to be retained.

Fantastic to see the new Local History Walks leaflet being represented in the Rattray Road Parklet this afternoon. It has over 40 walks from my fellow Lambeth Tour Guide colleagues as well as lots of other walks. Grab a copy soon 🚶🏻

Great to see @hernehillsociety.bsky.social on Bluesky and what a fab way to kick things off! 👇🏻

One of my favourite things about living in Herne Hill is just how many people work so hard for the community, so I'm sure there'll be no shortage of nominations for these Excellence Awards!
