That shouldn't of complied with building regs . But large developers can run their own building regs , surely a conflict of interest

Can anyone see these "New Builds" still being here in 50-100 years time. As for not wanting to spend much money........these cardboard boxes are ridiculously priced with postage stamp gardens and space for 1 car if your lucky.

All these new estates are shocking.........bloody rabbit warrens.

My rant over

You should pay a visit to the Poundbury development in Dorset, now that is a rabbit warren! Not to mention it's all being overseen by Prince Charles

You simply wouldn't believe me if I told you how bad it is at times Geoff. The stud walls and plastering can defy belief at times and all I get when I point it out is "well we must get onto them about that, do the best you can for now though"
It can test your patience!
