Context
Planning and environmental health issues:
Mr Brown-Squires said that he occasionally received complaints from residents about
people carrying out works to their boats.
Relationship to adjoining land uses/other boatyard facilities:
The marina is surrounded by housing (developed at the same time as the Marina). The
nearest boatyard facilities are at Brentford (SPL/MSO) and Hammersmith (Alan See).
Access arrangements (capacity, proximity to major roads):
The site has direct access onto a main road. There is separate car parking for marina
users and residents.
The only boatyard activity that takes place at the site is the mooring <strong>of</strong> vessels. The
moorings are well serviced, being provided with power and water and permission has
recently been obtained for 6 residential berths and a pump out facility. There are
however no boatyard activities such as repair and maintenance <strong>of</strong> craft undertaken at
the site
Comments (2007)
Not a boatyard – simply operating as a marina, situation static since 2000.
