Not another application!

I don't believe it (as someone once said)!  Another revised application with a slightly reduced number of homes proposed and some utterly pointless token gestures such as "preserving the historic context of the barns" by leaving out a single house in the new development.  Well you would probably be able to see the back of the barns, but it hardly constitutes "preserving" anything, least of all any historic context. 

When will the developers realise that it is not about horse trading over widening the tramway, leaving out a plot here or there or tarting up the play areas...we are objecting to the destruction of a beautiful green open space forever.

Anyone with an ounce of sensitivity to the community who saw the ecstatic expressions on the faces of dozens of children (and adults) enjoying the recent snow would realise that selling all this for a quick buck on land speculation is a pretty poor swap.

Unfortunately, although this time it is a revision so previous objectors should have been notified, the deadline for comments is tomorrow; try and get your objections in if you can.

Link to the application is here.
