Just so glad they have gone. Everything they touched either wasted £millions or damaged the Borough and that development shows a clear insight into their lack of intelligence. Very few things make me angry but that does.
It should have been as you say Margaret an opportunity to turn it into a more desirable location with a urban forest or huge park with playing fields and land banked the edges for large desirable houses in 5 years or so to net the Borough a financial return.

I find myself agreeing entirely with you In this case.No one in their right mind would build on the very edge of a main road or more to your point no one in their right mind would allow It.
In all my years of building I have never seen it before.
