At the end of a month where a public meeting at St Marys Church Hall saw over 60 residents attend, a petition with 91 signatures and 32 letters objecting, the remaining planning application to dilute Dudley House’s status as a nursing home was, last week, withdrawn.

Dudley House, The Grove: after a month of exercising neighbours, both planning applications now binned
On the eve of Hounslow Council planners refusing the removal of a condition allowing Dudley House to only operate as a nursing home, Pearl Resources Limited’s agent advised the authority that they would, “withdraw the application and submit a Certificate for Lawful Use to confirm the use of the property as any type of care home”.
