Those of you who might be wondering as to why the development of Stamford Bridge has appeared to stall, might find the following interesting.
It would appear that the development is being held up by one crucial problem, a solitary dwelling that will be deprived of light.
It seems that this dwelling, a cottage, is situated the other side of the railway line and in a different borough.
However, the towering development that the new Stamford Bridge will be, will deprive the Crosthwaites of light in the residence they have lived in for the past fifty years.
Naturally, Chelsea have tried to mediate and have offered the family substantial amounts of money to seek legal advice and also as compensation for their lack of light once the new development is completed.
However, Chelsea have now asked the local council to intervene in an attempt to prevent the referenced family seeking an injunction to half the development of our new home.
Unless the stand-off can be resolved, there is the risk that the development might never be undertaken plus there`s also the growing problem of the longer any work is delayed the higher the costs will spiral.
