I know I raised the issue of this alley but I have never had a fear of crime in the alley. I was hinting that the alley appears used as an escape route for those who have committed an offence. For this reason I think it is worth considering CCTV. I would like to reiterate that Forest Hill is a great place to live and a great place to raise a family and actually has a low level of crime compared to similar areas in London.
