Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The range of shops within walking distance are good. It’s unfortunate that the walk from the block to the High Street is poor. This may improve when the end piece of land is developed, but currently it’s often dirty, litter strewn (particularly during/after the weekend when the nightclub has been open) and the initial road crossing is out of action due to the development. Lack of a public bin by the bus stop outside means it is often litter strewn outside. Apartments overlooking the garden are also overlooked by the public multi-storey car park opposite which is often used by youths skateboarding, cycling , shouting or boy racers racing cars up and down.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Any issues raised were dealt with fairly quickly although my boiler repair took 4 days to get sorted

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

If I’d known about how the car park opposite was used by kids and boy racers, I would not have taken a courtyard view apartment.
