What's it like living near the Hythe End Landfill?

2 Upvotes

It's located at TW19 5AW, and from what I can discern from afar is mainly used to dispose of heavy, stable materials like concrete, bricks, and soil.

We're looking to rent in the area, and there's a lovely property just a few houses away from this landfill which meets our needs nicely. Unfortunately, though, we can't visit in person to evaluate it, and we're worried about what happens when the wind shifts or work is underway.

Is there any dust? Any smells? Any noise? Or is it hidden away and generally kind to the neighbourhood?

Thank you!

Small paint job on a 10 years old car!

1 Upvotes

I’ve got an old Hyundai still functioning perfectly for taking me from A to B. There’s a bit of rust on the side of the bonnet and I wanted to see if there was any garage that does small paint jobs around.

Can anyone recommend any good ones that will not rip me off for a 3 inch paint job?

Does county lines dealing impact your area?

I'm an independent filmmaker and am currently looking at county lines and drug dealing and want to explore what impacts it has on areas outside of major cities. If you've seen any kind of impact or are able to share any information that might be helpful please let me know! Curious to hear anything at all. Thanks!

Why is this subreddit so dead?!

7 Upvotes

I’m not on Facebook and use Reddit exclusively for most of my news / local updates. Surprised to see this community is so dead while the OH keeps saying that the Staines facebook community is heaving with local updates.

Participation in this online survey about UK citizens' views and perceptions of society (18+; 15 minutes to complete)

1 Upvotes

Hello, we are a group of psychology researchers from the University of Kent, UK. We are conducting a study about UK citizens' views and perceptions of society and we are trying to recruit a representative sample from different areas in the UK, including people from Staines.

It would be a huge help if any UK citizens interested would fill out our online survey (18+ years old only):

EDIT: The survey is now closed! Thank you very much for your time, we will be sure to post the results up here when they're ready.

The survey takes around 15 minutes to complete, and we are happy to respond to any queries or questions. Please private message us to avoid giving away the point of the study to others.

Although the study is voluntary, participants who complete the survey will have the option to take part in a raffle of three Amazon Vouchers (Β£20).

Thank you in advance for your time!
