A son lives on a "new estate" - actually 14 years old.
Lives in a branch of a normal road with 3 houses on it - brick rather than tarmac
He has a 1.5m pole in his garden with a street light. likewise the other 2.
The light failed in his garden, phoned council was advised that his part of the street has not been adopted by the Council.
The builder did not make a payment to the council when the house was built. This was unknown to the house owners until the street light failed many years later. The bulb was not expensive but relaying 50 metres of 2 x car width brick would be!
No chance of getting a response from the builder - they went bust over a year ago.
That said about 1 mile away there are a lot of disgruntled home buyers - the builder went bust weeks/months after they moved in. Half built homes next door, piles of builder's waste, unmade muddy access roads.
It appears other builders have made offers to the liquidators to buy the site & half built homes but cannot agree a price.
Meanwhile £500K homes and unsellable until the estate is completed in the future - it could be years!
