Very useful to attend the #Southwark Homeowners Conference 2026. Leaseholders are beyond frustrated, many are furious.
It’s an excellent forum for knowledge sharing & collaboration, plus pushing for real solutions to the mess many leaseholders face here.
Hats off to the organising team.

Cannon Street station is a railway terminus in the City of London.
It was built to compete with the rival London, Chatham and Dover Railway, on the site of a medieval steelyard, the trading base in England of the Hanseatic League.

I think I found the perfect example in #NunheadGreen, #Southwark.
