The Premier Inn on Marcham Road is watertight. Work to install lifts and electricals is progressing inside. Aluminium-coloured cladding has been added to the external walls of the first and second storeys. The building replaces the Tesco Garden Centre.
The new flats near Hartwells, off Drayton Road, are also watertight. A channel to provide services has been dug, and the top of the buildings has been decorated with wood cladding. This building replaces Ladygrove Cottage.
Foundations have been dug for another 8 flats on Drayton Road. The flats replace the Poplars, a house with stone lions on the gateposts and some vigorous pampas grass.
…the Premier Inn may well be water tight from the top; I wonder if it’s water tight from the bottom!?
And, given how the Drayton Road floods at present after more than a shower, how will adding to the greywater into the existing sewers and and watercourses help matters?
Vigorous pampas grass eh. We all know what that means now don’t we 🙂
@Chris John. I’m afraid I don’t know what that means. Could you please enlighten me?
Pampas grass is planted in a front garden is an indication that swingers live at the property
