Don't want canalside Legoland

KILLJOY residents at the canalside Brindley Place in Birmingham are objecting to a planned nearby Legoland.

The residents complain that the laughter from the proposed Legoland would make their lives a misery, Alan Tilbury reports.

Objections

Mind you, there were only two objections to the council's plans for a new Legoland Discovery Centre at the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham city centre, though one represented the residents of the Symphony Court complex across the canal in Brindleyplace, worried about the noise from joyous children.

The second objection was from an unnamed individual resident echoing those same complaints.

Dismissed complaints

But planning officers have dismissed the complaints pointing out that up to 15,800 people can file in and out of the main arena, formerly the NIA, at the same time for a concert or show late at night.

So the Legoland Discovery Centre is expected to be approved.
