Residents of Archway Heights, a nine-storey block in north London, say scaffolding has stood for more than six years. Cladding works have still not started because the landlord is waiting for approval from the building safety regulator. The metal and wooden structure blocks natural light and windows, and has brought security and vandalism problems. One resident says her teenage son's bedroom is almost completely dark.
