Sandy Lane remains a busy area for renovations and rebuilds and this one has taken the approach of leaving the period structure, with its bay windows and arched entrance, and added some distinctly modern features in the ubiquitous grey. I am not yet convinced that this combination works but nor am I convinced that it does not. It may swing on the final appearance of the garage.
What I am convinced about is the ugliness of the front garden, if garden is the correct word here. Not only has all the space for greenery gone, which is bad enough by itself, but the hard surface that has replaced it is uniform and featureless.
