| "There's 2 hours free in Morrisons, free parking in ALbany road, 30 minutes free on the High Street, or if you feel like paying there's the little car park opposite the magistrate's court (as was) Albany Parade, underneath Ferry Quays or in the Watermans." Precisely my point - what can I do for 30 minutes free on the High Street or if I try to get a park in the pay & display opposite the Thames Restaurant. If you want a nice relaxing lunch or whatever you constantly have to be checking your watck. Parking in Brentford is a disaster, hence the run down High Street. People don't want the hassle hence the shops close due to lack of business. Its a shame really. On the other hand there is always plenty of parking in 'ounslow' at the Treaty Centre but very few no decent resaurants. My wife tried to buy a little table at the very nice antique shop on Brentford High Street a couple of weeks ago but gave up due to lack of parking and an abundance of traffic wardens. She didn't want to take the chance of a huge parking fine and there were no free spaces (even for the 30 minutes) |
