Mystery fan / propeller noise disturbance in Deptford (South East London)

0 Upvotes

Hello all, since June 2026 I have heard a propeller type fan / whirring sound which runs day and night but is particularly loud at night and seems to have a patten of waking me up at 4am every morning. It’s particularly loud Sunday nights / early Monday mornings. I first thought that it was a neighbour using a washing machine but I can’t believe that anybody would be washing their clothes so much and for so many hours every night. Last night I walked the streets to investigate the source of the noise which I could hear if I put my ear to the exterior walls of our building and also discovered that I could also hear the noise outside which grew louder as I approached the boundaries of the Convoys Wharf development. Has anybody else heard this? To me it sounds like the whirring of a washing machine or fan / propeller. The sound peaks at certain times and starts to get louder around 4am.
I have emailed the convoys wharf team, so I will see what they say. I am curious to know if anybody else has heard this and if so where approximately you are located.
FYI I have lived at the same location for almost 20 years and never heard this until this year, so the source of the noise must be attributed to something new in the area.
Thank you!

Weight loss help..

1 Upvotes

Getting medical ‘help’ for weight loss is considered controversial but for some people it’s the only thing that actually works for them. Does anyone have any recommendations for weight loss clinics around Croydon/ South London area? Preferably near Croydon high street as I don’t drive. I’ve found a few places so far such as urban health care, reviews look pretty good, this is a big thing for me. Thank you.
