Does anyone have any idea possible business ventures which might replace the old MacDonalds? And now Aceri is closed the high street is becoming more derelict. We need an injection of bar/ coffee shop/ restaurants to really create an exciting vibe in Forest Hill, as the potential is there after visiting the excellent Dartmouth Arms.

I was speaking to an estate agent in the last few months (having recently moved to the area from Gipsy Hill) and they advised the town would be getting a £3 million "government injection" and potentially a make-over for the train station. I guess this was merely a good sales pitch....but i do love the area especially with easy access to the City.

Some cash for the train station has been mentioned before. As for other stuff, who knows.
