Aye I'd not bother. I used to use it but stopped a few months ago. They totally took over the site. Shame as it's a canny little concept of a local help/support/discussion group that is not facebook. Mind, they get plenty of abuse on facebook when they were posting their rubbish too often on other local groups.

This Nextdoor website is great. Some interesting posts and handy if you are looking for recommendations for building work or local events. Nextdoor is the free private social network for your neighbourhood community.

Or foxes or hedgehogs. Or just generally for an argument about building on south bents.
BTW are there any planning applications for development of the land behind Weardale ave/bransdale ave?

It would be fantastic if it wasn’t moderated by members of the seaburnministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda

Ever get the feeling Kath is just the Loud Hailer for her strapping husband. When 'The Seaburn Stack' was proposed, he responded with this:

Once again consultation with local residents and the general public have been ignored and a make shift application has been cobbled together in a botched attempt to save face due to the collapse of Carillion. Who in the right mind would seriously consider the citing of shipping containers etc on what can only be described as a prime seafront location. I object wholeheartedly on the grounds of increased traffic congestion, lack of parking facilities and totally inappropriate development for the area. To think that the Seaburn Center is to be demolished and a monstrosity like the proposed development put in its place just beggars belief. Nice one Sunderland, Not!

I object to this application on the grounds there will be an increase of traffic ,litter pollution etc
Hmmmm! I wonder who the mouth is and who is the instigator?
Anyway , we are not buying a detached house there...overlooking a crappy row of terraced houses...fuck off!

Prices not released yet, some loon told me they would start at £485k for a 4 bed which is laughable , but then again the same ‘in the know’ reckons half of dykelands road is earmarked to be demolished for a retail park too

Is that not to do with the fact that most of the houses in Ashbrooke are terraced and you don’t get many detached? Not saying that’s a bad thing like, I do love the style of houses over there.
Bob Fleming
Striker
Very few semis and detached in Ashbrooke proper. Ashbrooke range/Cedars/Glen path only really. Everywhere else is terraced. Be paying upwards of £450k on those sstreets too.

Tbh honest I was just looking at potters hill development and thinking they would be the same price. There doesn’t seem much difference in prices in most of their new builds, how much more will people pay to live on the front considering the potters hill development? 30-40k? Also not many plots left up there so the demand must be there. I would be breaking the bank for a house there if I lived over that way still, they have to increase in value as all the developments/investment start to take hold.
I know what you mean about ‘in the know’ got told a corker the other day by my mams fella about the footie team, a twenty minute conversation that ended with a bloke in the fish shop told him.

The folk of South Bents are very lucky to have that in walking distance for them. They should be rejoicing.

It beggars belief really as didn’t the locals want leisure use down there instead of housing. If that is the case then how can they now use traffic congestion as the issue?
This is often the problem...people want to be consulted but only on the basis of what they want!! Which often is undeliverable or contrary to their original arguments...
Bob Fleming
Striker
Aye. One of their objections to the housing was increased traffic. But if leisure was built there the throughput of traffic would be much much worse. None of them will admit that they simply do not want to lose their open field and nice view. I don't blame them for that at all either.
Osklen
Winger
The thing is that the stack surely won’t affect their view? Or are they based in seafields?

Seafields has no view of the sea front it's got a thick clump of trees separating it from a field and Morrisons and the other car parks
