I have walked our dogs in the beautiful Prince of Wales Park for many years and enjoyed the views and surrounding open countryside. The place is a haven for wildlife and enjoyed by many people.

Green Belt in the past was always looked on as being “untouchable” and I feel that there must be many brownfield sites that could be used to preserve this countryside.

I also have grave concerns concerning access on Heights Lane, which is a narrow and winding road and not conducive to an increase in traffic flow. The mini roundabout at the bottom of Heights Lane is always busy and I feel strongly that additional traffic could have an adverse effect here.

I further doubt whether Eldwick and its facilities, and in particular the First School, could cope with the additional families that the development would create.
