Other Centros Developments
Farnham
Website: Farnham Society
How familiar is this story? Consultation completely ignored, historic site ruined, secret deals between council and developer, financial aspects not revealed as they are "exempt", Ruth Kelly "in fantasy land ". Not Centros, this time, but the same kind of behaviour as we have seen from Lancaster city council and Centros.
We don't know the current situation with Farnham, but the Farnham Society keeps an eye on new developments that threaten their historic town.
