I have been exchanging emails with V22 for a month or so about the ugly hoardings that Willmott Dixon left at Louise House and are still there. Their latest email stated

"I raised your query as promised to our Build Manager who states that since we plan to conduct works on the front and back gardens which will require hoardings we have chosen to keep the hoardings up. Unfortunately it is a slow process, as we need to consult the Conservation office, ensure the appropriate planning and research has been conducted and then gain planning permission from the Council.

Although a long process, we really look forward to the days in which Louise House will look great and contribute to the already lovely street."

I fail to understand what possible work they can plan to do in the gardens that "will require hoardings", why they need to "consult the Conservation Office" etc. before removing them and as for them remaining there for "security reasons", as they claimed in a previous email, that makes no sense either as they don't even extend to the Pools side of the building.
Anyway it would seem for whatever reason that they intend to inflict this eyesore on their neighbours for the foreseeable future.
