"South London footie fans, pay attention: Southwark Council has officially approved plans to refurbish Dulwich's historic Champion Hill football stadium. The council has given the green light to plans that will see Dulwich Hamlet FC's old stadium transformed into a new 4,000-seat ground with a brand-new pitch and modern facilities. The footie club has been based in the borough for 123 years, and the new stadium is expected to secure the future of the team for years to come."
"The all-weather pitch will replace the dilapidated astroturf that's currently on the site. The main pitch will be open for public rental for use by the community when not in use for matchdays. The wider development will also get a new kickabout space for public use. The council confirmed that the nearby Greendale Playing Fields will not be directly affected by the development and will remain protected as open green space."
