| Phil, We probably actually agree, but I didn't express myself too well initially. Certainly there are many areas of Brentford that need to be protected and maintained, the water frontage, Gunnersbury & Syon Park, the area around Lateward Road etc. What I find unappealing in every sense is the complete mish-mash of building that goes almost the entire length of Brentford High Street on both sides, from the new Music Museum right down to London Road. Driving or walking down the A315 the surroundings 'jump around', there's no real pattern or trend, so I think the buildings fail to convey any kind of visual character, and that impression detracts from the community spirit. |
