, and this accounts for the large number of relaxed yet fashionable bars in the area. The Snug Bar (Camberwell Road) is good for cocktails and serves a roast lunch on Sundays. The house DJ plays old-skool reggae and a jazz band performs most Sunday nights. The Redstar, on the green, caters for a younger crowd and is often packed with people dancing to eighties / nineties pop on Firday and Saturday nights. Those people who prefer a more traditional pub should head for the Hermit's cave, at the corner of Grove Lane, although this, too gets very crowded at weekends.
The above is from the main page. I don't think a pub guide to camberwell is encyclopedic. Secretlondon 12:40, Nov 1, 2003 (UTC)
Hello, I'm new here. Is "Rumour has it that Camberwell Green has the highest crime rate of any place in europe." suitable for the Wikipedia? It seems to me that self-professed rumour isn't the sort of thing that should be in an encyclopedia.
I would welcome some discussion on whether or not a link to the fabled carrot is of relevance to this page. Personally I think it should stay in. Camberwell and neighbouring Brixton & Peckham are places where you can't walk down the high street without smelling marijuana, and the "Camberwell Carrot" riff from Withnail and I is one of the few times the place is referenced in popular culture. Perhaps if there was a "Camberwell in popular culture" heading we could dig up a few more links, such as Basement Jaxx's song "She lives in Camberwell, I live in Brixton". Thoughts? -- PaulWicks 10:26, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
There are a number of active community websites which could be added to the list of external links. In my view, they would provide useful information about the area. However, they are mostly unofficial blogs, which the guidelines say should generally be avoided. The ones I am thinking of are the Camberwell Online Blog, Forgotten Camberwell, and the SE5 Pool within Flickr. There is also Camberwell Environment, though here there is a potential conflict of interest, as the blog is the creation of my husband.
I'd welcome views on whether it would be appropriate to include these. Cdmason 15:13, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Since no-one has responded to my previous comment, I have added links to two of the four websites mentioned above. Cdmason 16:12, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives ( talk) 11:59, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

The 1916 map seems to indicate that Dulwich, Peckham and Nunhead – also part of Herne Hill? – are part of Camberwell, but the articles appears to contradict this. I'm presuming that the problem arises because of changes over time (in particular the sub-dividing of the original parish with the growth of suburbia). It needs to be clarified.

I think this page on Camberwell would benefit if it had a section on Camberwell's industrial history, and other well known enterprises that were once based here. It used to have a lot of factories - all gone now. This is something that could be reflected in a section on Camberwell. For example R White's lemonade, Marmite and Dualit toasters all used to be made in Camberwell. Codd, a famous Victorian lemonade maker which used bottles with glass balls in their necks was also here. Futura paperbacks were once headquartered here. Save the Children the charity used to be based in Camberwell. Any thoughts? Booklung ( talk) 10:00, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
Why has Muriel Spark been taken out? She lived in Camberwell until she moved to Rome - living at 13 Baldwin Crescent. Why has she been taken out? She is among the most significant people to ever live in the area, and her omission is bizarre. [1] [2] [3]

Lordship Lane railway station was in the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell but not in Camberwell itself, the subject of this article. A picture of it is not pertinent here. Mutt Lunker ( talk) 01:12, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
There may be others listed here as born in Camberwell but from Peckham, Dulwich or Herne Hill, e.g. someone born in, say, East Dulwich would at one time have been registered in Camberwell Registration District (until 1991 according to Free BMD). And "who lived in" might mean the borough? It would be helpful if the boundaries of the current "place" were givem. I found this Google map.
Might I suggest amending the lede to indicate that Camberwell can refer to the original village of Camberwell, which would have been in the vicinity of Camberwell Green and St Giles Church; the Parish of Camberwell that existed from .. to.. and included Peckham, etc; the Borough of Camberwell that was created .. and and included ..., which was then merged ....; and a more recently a place, more or less the area of the original village, bounded by Peckham to the east, Dulwich and Herne Hill to the south, Walworth to the north and Kennington the west. And to make it clear that the article is about all these. What do you think Mutt Lunker?
Also is Denmark Hill really part of the contemporary "Camberwell", or now a distinct district? Also is Dog Kennel Hill in East Dulwich, Denmark Hill, or Camberwell (meaning the smaller district)? Rwood128 ( talk) 17:16, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
Why is it relevant to an article on Camberwell that "The South Circular Road passes through Dulwich"? I guess you could say "nearby Dulwich" if it is regarded as a sufficiently significant asset to note having this in a neighbouring area. Mutt Lunker ( talk) 13:56, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
