For over 100 years the residents of Brentford and their visitors were denied access to views of the River Thames. The riverbank was hogged by wharfs, a Council Depot, boat maintenance yards, private moorings, the hugh Brentford Docks and on the west side by the Duke of Northumberland's vast private lands. When the Gas Works was finally demolished ... the locals were still denied river views by the tall notorious surrounding wall. Since then dubious folk in the Property Market have had a heyday Todays 9 Brentford Labour Councillors shortchange the locals still. No engaging enough with locals ... and writing blogs full of waffle. |
