Odour
Kingston upon Thames is considering resident concerns about potential odour from a proposed healthcare centre.
In September 2026, residents voiced strong objections to a proposed healthcare rehabilitation centre in Kingston upon Thames, raising concerns about potential increases in odour, a distinctive smell. The Kingston upon Thames Planning Committee discussed the application on September 16, 2026, which seeks to demolish existing buildings and construct a three-storey facility for pre- and post-operative care.
Residents living on Ladderstile Ride and Warboys Road cited concerns over the building's size, its visual impact, and potential increases in noise, odour, and parking pressures. No further meetings are currently scheduled to discuss odour concerns related to this application.
