Dear Editor,
I am writing to draw attention to a Planning Application for 6 privately built terraced housing units close to the Wealdstone Brook in the disused garage area at the back of Woodgrange Close in Kenton. This proposed development abuts the Woodgrange side of Woodcock Park and abuts the Wealdstone Brook close to the Mural Bridge. It was available to view up to today (18/12/25) but has now been withdrawn as 'invalid'.
Application reference 25/3407 is currently invalid, and as such will not appear on the public register. Once the application is made valid the Local Planning Authority will carry out a statutory consultation, at which time the documents will be available to view on the public record.
An attempt to produce this controversial development has been thwarted for the time being but we need to be vigilant about it being presented once again in the New Year with short notice. This proposed private housing development will have a negative major impact on the Wealdstone Brook here and further downstream in Wembley.
