General Discussion

It's sad to see the last of the Railway Convalescent Homes Bridge House is to close.

Lovely gardens, employment for locals and money into the town. That is sad.

Heard this rumour a few months back. No doubt it will be made into flats and add to the traffic congestion around the Church Street/Weech Road/Badlake Hill area.

Lovely grounds - visited there some years back.

So, let's now await the planning applications.

On the other hand it could be left for years as a deteriorating eyesore a bit like The Old Rectory along Weech Road and the site of Daw Vale care home along Westcliff.
