Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 9 March

This post is more than 11 years old

March 15, 2015 by Tessa Shepperson

Homerton COllegeWe paid a visit on Thursday to Homerton College, our venue for the Landlord Law Conference next month (and for some of our workshops).

It is a beautiful place!

Homerton College is one of the newer Cambridge colleges and is not in the centre of the town but out a bit on the Hills Road.  However this means that it has over 20 acres of parkland!

I felt very envious of the students there – there are gardens, a pond with ducks, an orchard and just a lot of space!

We are praying for a sunny day on the 14th …

But what happened on the blog?

Monday

Court fees rise AGAIN – 9 March
