Local Developments


I thought as fellow owners and residents you might like to know (if you don't already) about a few fairly significant developments taking place in our vicinity.

Regardless of your views on them, there is likely to be an impact both in the short term, for example during the work, and later on, well we shall have to see.

Work starting in Sep 2015, due for completion 2020.
