At the April committee meeting the Prospect Rd representative noted that H2YDRO Properties had submitted proposals for floating homes, a marina and nature area on the filter bed site on the Portsmouth Rd between Kingston and Winters Bridge and had put on an exhibition at the Holiday Inn. It was noted that the company was part of the Kennett group which also owns St James’ Homes. Although the site is in the Royal Borough of Kingston, not in Elmbridge, any development is likely to affect Long Ditton.
