Few from the Eco-Village in Brentford/Kew Bridge.

I had been meaning to go down to this for ages and finally got the chance the other week.

For those who don't know, the area of land (on the London Road, by Kew Bridge) has been left abandoned for a number of years and is 'owned' by the property developers St. Georges.

In June, activists moved in to the site and turned the place into a sustainable home for many (helping the housing crisis too - thousands are on the social housing waiting list in West London!). Tours are available daily and you can even submit a proposal to stay there for a week.

Fuck your B&Q bathrooms:
