Neighbours have labelled the construction of a storage building behind their homes as 'hell'. Local business Ken Wilkins Print Group, which produces much of the food packaging for the UK's leading supermarkets, is currently finishing a temporary building at the back of Valeside Gardens, Colwick, but it has been met with disapproval by some nearby homeowners.
The family-run company is currently expanding its Road One factory by 44,000 square metres, which it says will create new opportunities for local employment. The Wilkins Group has said that as a result of this, a new storage building was needed, with the land already having permission for a temporary storage structure.
Angered neighbours have raised concerns over the closeness of the new building to their homes and over the construction process. A Valeside Gardens resident, who did not want to be named, and whose garden is behind the new building, labelled the construction a "blooming eyesore".
