This is a ludicrous location. Riverside access is via a B road along which 2 cars may not pass. The pavements are so narrow and at such an angle that locals habitually walk in the road. It is a residential street and the noise and disruption caused by the works and subsequent vehicular traffic is an abhorrent intrusion. There is limited parking and the train stations are a good 15 to 20 mins walk away. The playground and amenities at orleans gallery are loved and utilised by locals. Art clubs are run in the gallery courtyard and a forest school is run in the beautiful natural gardens. We treasure the Orleans Gallery grounds where children are playing the play ground that their parents played in. It is a tranquil and safe spot for dog walkers, cyclists, runners and family outings. Do not destroy our amenities. Other locations, such as Hampton Court, which are better suited to this enterprise should be investigated.
