The University have applied for planning permission for a large temporary potacabin on land at the back of the former Kingsley Park Middle School building. Residents in Trinity Avenue have expressed their concern that the building will be unsightly and damaging to trees and wildlife. The university will use the portacabin while they are expanding their Innovation Centre, but before the old school building (which is listed) has been converted for use. Other sites have been considered for the portacabin but rejected.

Plans can be viewed on the Borough Council’s website www.northampton.gov.uk . The reference number for the application is N/2008/0757. Let me know your views.
