Climate change is hitting Greenwich Market
Anyone walking through the market recently, on a hot & busy weekend
will have noticed the hot & sticky atmosphere _____airlessness ___ & that it's a few degrees hotter & more humid than in the sun.
It's the greenhouse affect ___so what's new?
Some Wally thought they could play with the architecture & put up a splash guard between the main roof & the roof above the surrounding
shops. This was to protect the edge stalls from getting wet when it rains. An admirable idea, but not thought through.
This was done in spring, when the main weather ahead should ( with a little luck ) be sunny & warm.
This splash guard has the affect of stopping the circulation of air , increasing the heat & humidity,plus making it unbearable for visitors and traders alike.
We haven't even got to the height of Summer yet. People won't come in on sunny days , if its going to be stinky hot and humid.
Who gave planing permission for this ?
The splash guard seems to be permanent ___ no hinge or slide arrangement , to open it up & let the air circulate
OPEN IT UP AND LET US BREATH
As a regular visitor to the market, I hope something will be done about this before the real heat of summer kicks in.
Stinky Hot of Greenwich
Well said "Stinky Hot of Greenwich" the splash guards are a well meaning but ill conceived idea, why for God's sake put them up when it's supposed to be drier and warmer? This is the cronic head in the sand way of thinking by the mis-management of this market. The increased humidity will doubtless do the increased food court produce the world of good....
