Development on this site will remove forever the characteristic that makes Radford Semele a village rather than a suburb. These open fields, close to the ancient church, bring agriculture, the countryside and farming into the heart of the community and are the essence of being a proper village. Those residents walking daily to school, to the pub, to the church or to the shops are made aware of the nature of village life by the setting of the church, the homes and the pub within the context of worked, agricultural land. This must not be lost.
