About Me

South Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
We are the neighbours of the "Chilterns Water Mill" - featured on the episode of Grand Designs first broadcast on the 4th February 2009. We were asked to take part in the programme, but were strongly advised not to due to the extremely serious nature of allegations we have made against South Oxfordshire District Council - including improper conduct on the part of specific employees and councillors. The council is currently under investigation by the Local Government Ombudsman and the Standards Board for England. If anyone is serious about wanting to know details of the allegations or a fuller account of what has gone on - email me (from an address I can identify please) and we might talk further.

When We Alerted the Council

We just want to clear up one point that seems to keep coming up on the forums - we didn't leave it until the house was built to alert the Council - but rather complained immediately it became apparent there was a problem  - which was when the steel supporting structure had been built. The "unannounced" visit from the council didn't happen until over a month after our complaint - by which time Chris Ostwald had managed to get very nearly all his timberwork up!

Needless to say, this point is covered in our complaint to Grand Designs...
