Vic the last application Mr Clarke's company put in was for 46 flats on the site - the council rightly rejected it on grounds of density and the fact it overlooks a primary school.
There is no way that the site can pay for itself through development given that it has been used for vehicle maintenance or scrapping since the early 1940s and is therefore likely to be contaminated, plus it is very close to the water table and is bounded on two sides by the river. My personal opinion is that they would be better off selling it for a small profit rather than holding out in the hope that the planning department will approve their proposals.
Ian I do not share your view, but I do think we did not get as much out of it as we should have - but that is water under the bridge now.
