[Families living in the shadow of two
gigantic warehouses have likened the
experience to having a "cruise ship"
land in their back gardens.
The enormous steel structures,
part of a 350,000 sq ft industrial site,
tower over fences and hedges,
completely overshadowing homes
just metres away from the development.]


[Delivery giant Whistl has already secured
one of the vast sheds,
signing a 15-year contract on a 140,000 sq ft unit.
A council chief maintained that landscaping
would help mitigate the visual impact,
adding that the project followed the
proper planning process.

However, residents argue that the final
approved plans were significantly larger than
the original designs.]

Why have they built so close to people's homes?

I hope the homeowners sue the council and/or Whistl - not only would having that crap right behind their houses affect quality of life, but also property prices.
