Brockley Way Turned Caravan Park

Reported via mobile in the Car parking category anonymously at 09:59, Thursday 25 June 2026

Sent to Southwark Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9680711.

Multiple Vehicles have been turning up on Brockley Way (Southwark Side) with people living in them! First the white van with the roller shutter (male inside)! Then the white van (female inside)! Then the caravan which appears to also belong to the female who chain her bike up opposite the white van. Then this huge grey van with multiple windows! This is getting out of hand! Whilst it is legal to park on a public road - to live in the vans and take up most of one side of the road it is not acceptable! Brockley Way is not a caravan park! When the nice man lived in his coach on Brockley Way he was evicted from the Lewisham side and then moved on from the Southwark side. Where is all the human waste going?? Funerals take place daily and the van for the horses now struggles to park and people coming to cremate or bury their loved ones should not have to see a road full of vans / mobile homes!!

Southwark Council & Lewisham Council “Please Act” and ask these people to move. They can pay to stay in a proper caravan park and not on our residential street.

The owner of the Ambulance moves it between the Lewisham and Southwark sides of Brockley Way as it’s split into two boroughs - today it’s parked on the Lewisham side. Last night it was parked on the Southwark side. The owner does not live here and uses the road regularly as a car park for his business vans! Multiple vans which have been reported to the police! Even fly tipped from one of them!! Enough is Enough!! How many of these mobile homes / vehicles is too much!!!

Updates

  • Still not fixed and more vans turning up weekly with people living in them or leaving them as storage and returning to them!! Almost the whole side of the Southwark end of the street is full so people who actually live on the street cannot park!! Where is the human waste going? Why is this okay to have a “FREE” caravan park literally on our street! WHY is Southwark Council not doing anything to move them on!!!

    On the Lewisham side is 2 repeated offenders! An old Ambulance and now a Patty Bun Van!!

    These people are taking up our parking spaces!! We live here - pay council tax…. Blah blah
