Respondent: Member of Parliament (Conservative)

Agent: Deborah Davies

Representation Summary:

SH3/H – Wycliffe Road (44)

I object to the inclusion of this land because:

• This is a well used area of green space for nearby local housing including many two and three storey flats, many which lack gardens, in a built up area.
• Such space is meant to be protected under the Council’s Local Plan.
• There is general recognition that pockets of open space in residential areas like this are vital for mental and physical health, well-being and sense of community.
• This land is designated as Recreational Open Space in the Council’s Strategic Land Assessment.
• Poor air pollution is already an issue here and any development would make this worse.
