Bromley neighbours divided over controversial plan for helicopter lift in garden
Briefly

A proposal to store a helicopter underground at Cookham Dene estate has garnered mixed reactions from locals. While some neighbors fear noise and pollution from the helicopter's operation, supporters argue that it provides a discreet solution, minimizing visual impact. The design includes a concrete lift to raise the helicopter eight meters underground, only visible during take-off and landing. Previous owners state that the garden was suitable for helicopter landings, and planning documents highlight the owner's need for regular helicopter access. Concerns persist about potential community fallout and environmental disturbances.
One neighbour expressed concerns about the noise of the helicopter taking off and landing, while others worry about potential community divisions and environmental impacts.
Supporters of the helicopter lift believe it provides an elegant solution to hide the helicopter while allowing convenient access for those with the means.
