NCP developers want new planning permission

Development Securities have approached our local Council and signalled that they intend to seek new planning permission for the NCP car park site at the bottom of Hammersmith Grove. You can view their proposals by clicking here.

We are not against the development of the NCP site. It is an eyesore and we would welcome any improvement. However, we are yet to be convinced that the proposals put forward by Development Securities will be an improvement. Their proposed building seems too big for a residential area and we are keen to negotiate with the Council and the developer to ensure that are homes are not blighted by an over sized building that does not fit with this historic residential setting.
