Through the responsible stewardship of the Estate we have achieved strong financial returns for our beneficiaries. The £10m capital distribution announced last year was paid to our beneficiaries in April 2017, and together with the income distribution has enabled the schools, The Dulwich Almshouse Charity, and the Chapel to deliver greater charitable impact for young and old, increasing the numbers of means-tested bursaries, widening educational opportunities, improving student facilities and providing invaluable services. As well as supporting our beneficiaries, I am committed to enhancing Dulwich as a thriving, attractive neighbourhood. The Scheme of Management helps to maintain the distinctive character of the area, with its array of well-maintained housing and wonderful green spaces to enjoy. During the past year two much-loved flagship pubs have reopened following extensive refurbishment: The Crown and Greyhound in Dulwich and The Half Moon in Herne Hill, which has won two industry accolades for quality and service, including Greater London Pub of the Year 2018. On the former Dairy Site at Croxted Road, we have completed a new development which provides a state-of-the-art health centre, pharmacy, flats and shops. We believe these will bring a significant boost to the community at West Dulwich. The renovation of two shops in Dulwich Village, as part of our ongoing investment in the area, will improve the local food offering, and we are pleased to welcome as a first step, the independent butcher The Proud Sow. Further investment is planned across the Estate. The Board remains committed to supporting The Dulwich Almshouse Charity to secure a new almshouse on a suitable site, providing valuable sheltered housing for the elderly in need in our community. Our achievements are made possible by the Estate’s able and hardworking staff. I would particularly like to thank John Major, our outgoing Chief Executive who retired after 19 years of dedicated service to the Estate. In January we welcomed Simone Crofton who brings a wealth of skills in place-making and charity leadership from her previous roles, including that of Chief Executive of The Borough Market Trust. I would like to express my thanks also to Michael Maunsell who stepped down as a Trustee and to Patricia Cox who joined the Board during the year. We look forward to celebrating in 2019 our 400th anniversary. We are excited about the future, about the real difference we can make both to the area and to our beneficiaries, and the opportunities ahead to build on the legacy of our founder, Edward Alleyn. Nicola Meredith, Chairman of Trustees The Dulwich Estate Annual Report 2018 5 Chief Executive’s foreword I’m delighted to have joined an organisation which has helped make Dulwich and the surrounding areas, an idyll for lovers of the great outdoors, in addition to one of the most sought-after residential areas of London. At the same time, The Dulwich Estate has delivered on its founding principles of supporting educational opportunity, sheltered homes for the elderly and a community chapel of historic interest. I want to build on this legacy, through broad and deep partnerships. Working together, we can continue our vital support for young and old, while bringing our outstanding facilities, diverse high streets and amazing local history to as wide an audience as possible. We are lucky to be home to a vibrant mix of independent traders with active trade associations, providing strong retail offers, thriving local economies and a real community backbone. This year we worked with the newly formed Dulwich traders’ association. I look forward to supporting their efforts by bringing in the best independent and popular shops, cafes and retailers across the Estate, and inspiring visitors and residents alike with a distinct experience. Dulwich is an area of outstanding beauty. It is home to more than 40 acres of allotments, 69 acres of ancient woodland, 12 playing fields. The area exceeds Southwark’s natural greenspace standard threefold – and this is reflected in high satisfaction ratings in residents’ surveys. Our partnership with the London Wildlife Trust helps manage the largest remaining areas of ancient woodland in London, which includes Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood. This work protects wildlife and trees but also increases access to the woodland for visitors, through guided walks. We can achieve more of these combined objectives in the year ahead. I look forward to enabling our beneficiaries to continue providing outstanding educational and housing support at each end of the generational spectrum. Together they provide hundreds of means-tested bursaries, educational programmes, housing help for those most in need, and a hub of historic and religious interest. Our job is to enable life opportunities and create exceptional spaces, suited to the way we live today while building for the future. It’s an exciting time in our evolution.

We would not be able to fund our charitable objectives without keeping a close eye on these assets. The largest income contribution continues to come from our portfolio of commercial and residential property. The property income is derived from a variety of uses: industrial (9%), retail and leisure (43%), educational (8%), residential (39%), and other miscellaneous uses including garages and allotments (1%). We seek to retain and secure long-term income from our portfolio and have supported new, expanding or relocating businesses by offering them attractive, flexible lease terms to contribute to the local economy. This has not been easy with market uncertainty following the Brexit vote in June 2016 and the business rates revaluation that came into effect in April 2017. Occupation of our retail premises remains strong with businesses generally keen to commit to new leases. When a unit becomes vacant we target specific retailers to complement the existing retail mix in each of our commercial parades. Our aim is to enhance customer choice and to create an exciting, high quality, sought after retail offer. This can result in longer void periods and in these instances we may introduce a “pop up” tenant into the shop, which adds vibrancy and interest to our retail areas. This year we will work closely with the traders associations in Dulwich, West Dulwich and Herne Hill. We will continue to build positive relationships with our tenants and residents, discussing with them the issues that impact them and the fabric of the Estate. We are working hard to ensure good engagement with different interest groups and residents’ associations, through a variety of measures.

  • Dulwich Village Conservation Area Appraisal Part 3
    3.5.2 One of the few sites in the conservation area that offers a conspicuous opportunity for enhancement is the filling station at the corner of Calton Avenue and Gilkes Crescent with its garish canopy. This positively detracts from the setting of the interesting group of later 19th century cottages opposite the site. 3.5.3 Dekker Road, Desenfans Road and Druce Road date from the earlier 20th century. They were built to allow the replacement of insanitary cottages in Garden Row, and provide new homes for poorer residents. In Dekker Road are small cottages and maisonettes on two levels that are set at low rentals. A plaque at the Court Lane end of the road commemorates their construction in 1904 to the designs of the architect Charles E. Barry. Figure 18, Alleyn’s School, Townley Road, An impressive late 19th century red brick educational establishment, set in and amongst large, open grounds. The original clock tower is mirrored by a modern clock tower on a new pavilion to the south. It is unlisted but is a key building as a focus to views across the sports grounds and as a counterpoint to the spire of St. Barnabas’ Church on the ridge to the south. 28 Conservation Area Regeneration Department 3.5.4 Court Lane (figure 19) is mostly lined by semi-detached pairs of late Victorian, Edwardian and inter-War houses of consistent quality. Recessed doors, pitched roofs with gable ends and projecting bays add architectural interest. Some properties have dormer windows at roof level, which have detracted from the rhythm of the rooflines and the symmetry of the pairs.

Today’s residents range in age from 70 to 100, with the oldest two having lived here for 25 years each. Understanding earlier this year that we had no protocol on how we celebrate the 100th birthday of a resident, let alone a quater-centenary, was a nice problem to have. Our residents enjoy the privacy of their individual homes but equally enjoy the community within which they live, their mutual companionship and support. When the Dulwich Almshouse Charity Trustees began to consider appropriate ways to celebrate this 400th Anniversary there was unanimous support for the idea of putting on record the history of the frst 400 years.
