Though the "pickle factory" was at the top of the hill, fairly level area, I think the reason behind the 3 storey houses are to increase floor space without increasing the building footprint, & to keep within the gov guidelines for houses per hectare

Think it quite good that residents can see the problems it will cause and hold it up for a while, however, feel Barrets will just 'tweak' their plans to overcome this .. agree better than what is there at the moment, think the Stanhill residents just don't want to share.
From what was posted in the LET it would seem that Barretts did not 'tweak' their plans in any way for the second submission to HBC. I think the residents have put a very good case forward, the letters and emails to HBC are excellent, I hope they get a fair hearing at the appeal.
