I know it's tedious but if you objected to the first (rejected) application, please repeat for this one. Both applications for the corner of Whittington Road were also thrown out. I think they're…Continue

"That is amazing. We lived in Queens Road (I was born 1946 and lived there until 1958) and our little garden backed onto the flats. I had no knowledge of these being flattened. They must have built the flats very quickly after the war. Roger"
