Lovely post Margaret. For all the quirkiness, river and general loveliness that is Richmond and this part of West London, it is now ruined by aircraft noise.
We are leaving after 27 years of living here.
Unfortunately, many,many Londoners are also suffering from increased noise due to flightpath changes imposed by NATS ( National Air Traffic Service), even before the expansion of City Airport and Heathrow or Gatwick. I really noticed the lower arrivals when I went to the Serpentine, and when I went to Highgate. I would not say I am particularly sensitive to noise, so I cannot be the only one who is noticing these un-consulted changes to our air. Apologies, rant over!
