Representation ID: 60562

Received: 10/12/2013

Respondent: Mr Mark Beaglehole

Representation Summary:

Although technically a brownfields site, this field has been for at least 20 years a natural area of wonderful biodiversity with extensive wild plant growth, an orchard, footpath & brook with bridge, play area for children, social area for local residents, home to chickens, foxes, badgers, bats
and smaller wildlife - clearly marking the end of 'development' and the start of 'countryside'. To allow development on this site would be a travesty of planning and add nothing to the sustainability of the local community or environment.
