Representation Summary:

HA2/H, HA3/H, Haworth is the jewel in Bradford's crown. Tourists do not come from across the world (esp. Japanese) to see housing estates. they expect open fields and dry stone walls. Look at previous new builds, stand at the junction of Cryer Meadows and Lees Lane and you will find three styles of walling never before seen in Haworth. Visit Long Acres estate see the ugliest walls imaginable. What used to be gentle rising fields from Vale Mill Lane, now has been changed with a massive raised level of land so much so that the houses stand on concrete rafts. Travelling up Lees lane from Mill Hey look to the left and note the large concrete slabs supporting Cryer Meadows, the housing looks like army barracks. ( I lived in better better looking accommodation 5yrs in R.A.F.) My main objection is the style of build PLUS altering the land levels.
