Everyday I come across new local blogs that house active communities and a wealth of local information. Rather than keep them to myself any longer I’ve decided to start highlighting some of the better ones here on the welovelocal blog.

To kick things off I’d like to bring everyone’s attention to the excellent Brockley Central that posts on range of issues from, the closing of a local pub, to the opening of a new nature reserve. Brockley Central is a testament to how passionate people are about their local area and how the internet can bring it’s residents closer together. Keep up the great work too all involved.

For those who don’t know, Brockley is a rather leafy area of Lewisham. Read the Wikipedia entry on Brockley here, and see photos from the Brockley Flickr group here.
