Respondent: Mr. Laurence Hackworth
Swopping sports centres for housing, there are far better sites with lower grade green belt which could be used instead. Coalescence with Whitlocks End, Majors Green, Bromsgrove District Council, which also means we lose the character of DH village. Thought it had to be within 80metres or 10mins walking distance to facilities of DH - this is not. Impact on landscape, ancient woodlands and wildlife sites will be ruined, buffers required to protect these, and connectivity would be huge. Survey of DH residents 90% objected to further development. Loss of wildlife/greenbelt in area being consumed by housing
