Crazy. 4 years after the initial rejected proposal, planning committee goes against officersโ advice on the revised, reduced application. The site remains a Travis Perkins blocking the towpath in the shadow of the Westway. Could be 830 student rooms by now.

Screenshot from the 1951 film โHigh Treasonโ. Taken on Lambeth Bridge, the building in the background is the drab Lambeth Bridge House, with Lambeth Palace out of shot on left. In the 1990โs it was replaced by the swirly Parliament View flats.
