Residents in Queens Road, a quiet residential road in Teddington, thought that with the change of Council administration there might be a change in plans for a large young people’s residential home to be squashed on the site of a bungalow, between two houses with little space either side. Last week in Edition 95 the Tribune published two letters from residents affected by this build. Since then they have been told that work starts within a couple of weeks and the contractors will need access to a resident’s garden to erect their scaffolding! Being strongly supported by the Council, there was little chance of stopping this building at planning, as local residents and those who have been in similar situations can testify. However, there were concerns about the [lack of] consultation and neighbours’ hopes were pinned on a new administration reconsidering, based on the failure to follow proper procedures.
