Name: Keith Baker on Feb 12, 2006Comments: At Brentford Marine Services we provide vital services to users of the canl, and are often called upon by the lock keepers to assist narrowboats coming in from the Thames with problems. We have relied on our base in Ridgeways' basin for over 12 years now, and if this is closed to us we will be unable to continue. This is a loss to the community as well as ourselves. It would be irreversible folly to destroy so unique a facility.State:Country: UKFlag

Name: Andrew Dakers on Feb 12, 2006Comments: This is an essential resource if we are to protect our local history and continue to have a dynamic boating community in Brentford.

Name: Jan Jones on Feb 12, 2006Comments: Brentford has long been awaiting redevelopment and I am in favour of moving forward but I think this must be done also with consideration for the past. That is why I feel that retaining the boatyard, which has been so much a part of the history of Brentford for so very long, is important. Lots of people participate in and enjoy the local history walks around Brentford and we do not wish to see Brentford becoming a soul-less new centre only.State:Country: UKFlag

Name: Jean Masters on Feb 12, 2006Comments: Ridgeway's boatyard represents a major part of our heritage and it would be sacrilege to destroy it to make place for yet another bland modern development. I am not a boating person but I believe this boatyard offers something unique. Any redevelopment plans must incorporate the boatyard within it. Does the Council not realise that it could be a key feature attracting people to our town Make the most of it as a centre-piece & tourist attraction; it makes us different! For once, I beg you not to be driven by short-term gain or the easy option. We already have too many uninteresting modern developments around our waterways.State:Country: UKFlag

Name: Audrey Walton on Feb 12, 2006Comments: It would be wonderful if the canal area could be retained. This is such a fascinating area and should not be lost. The riverside and canalside should be available to everyone. Years ago we used to walk along the canal of an evening, it was so peaceful and much wildlike. Haven't visited in many years but it would be nice to know it is being updated and available to visitors. Enough with the condos.State:Country: USFlag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 12, 2006Comments: Let's retain something of the past, rather than perpetually kowtowing to big business & letting them get away with another identikit development. Keep the yards in Brentford - part of the reason for the town existing originally after all. By all means modernise them if necessary, but let's keep some heritage....State:Country: UKFlag

Name: Ray Wood on Feb 13, 2006Comments: We only really have local authority planning powers to make sure our waterways heritage is not destroyed and lost as an asset for future generations. As a former head of Waterways Branch at the then DOE, I urge the local authority to exercise those powers in ensuring the proper protection is given to Ridgeways' in any proposed redevelopment.State:Country: UKFlag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 13, 2006Comments: I moved to brentford from Kew and feel proud of the working heritage of the area, and it's strong community. To remove such personality, history and wildlife to replace it with faceless tower blocks seems criminal. Is Brentford, to become just another tidy, anonymous housing estate with no discernable character, sitting on the main road from Hounslow to ChiswickState: ARCountry: UKFlag
