I think throughout most of their childhood, my children have had bedrooms which inquisitive neighbours might have looked into, but we took the precaution of putting up curtains. They also enjoyed playing in the garden, with neighbours who look over the fence if they wanted. We also let them go to school on their own, but we were of course very careless parents.marymck wrote:really Tim I do urge you to read my comments, which are about extensions. I have not commented on new homes. You have fallen into the government's trap of missing this plan because they have buried it in the new homes planning proposals.
Nor do I intend to comment on immigration. I am commenting on unrestricted extensions to existing properties, which BTW will result in fewer affordable homes (unless you count those of the neighbours whose properties will have been diminished).
Am I to assume you are happy to have your child's bedroom overlooked? Because that will be the result of these plans for many.

Extensions add habitable rooms.
What is truly insane is that by dint of being automatically rounded up as one of the usual suspects, Mary's views pass as those of the community for Lewisham Council.
