I also know 12a did not even have planning, they put in retrospective planning. The development is awful and poor in quality. On the other hand I would rather overlook the lovely grass roof and design of the 14a development. The couple who live there are award winning architects http://www.fra-her.com/ personally I think their project work looks great.

HOPcat I do agree that future local developments need to be challenged if not suitable, this should be done so on a case by case basis.
