I am afraid this is typical of the planning applications that are being permitted. Look at Westbourne for example.
Seems to be current policy to fit as many units as possible into SE 23.
This is despite the fact that what employment we had is falling away.
Do you know if these 11 units are for sale or rent ?? If for sale surely wasting their time. If for rent they are saying thousands of Poles etc are going home so who is going to rent.
Sunderland Rd has some lovely Victorian properties and this is a real pity if it goes through. I suggest you write to your 3 councillors.
