The importance of greenfield sites to all our wellbeing is incalcuable. The two sites proposed on West Lane provide an open pastoral aspect crucial to this with views up to the moors. I walk there frequently, now with a sinking feeling that this will be built on, undoubtedly by the ugly 3 storey houses becoming the norm as we squeeze ever more quantities of housing into our precious dwindling greenbelt.
Wellbeing is a vital part of our lives, never more important than during this dreadful Covid-19 inflicted year, and these open spaces are a massive component in providing this. Without the buffer these remaining green fields provide, houses from the centre will be continuous with little, if any, relief. Please do not destroy forever that which helps make life worth living.
