Yes the green spaces are of local significance and are valued areas for local residents as well as visitors from other parts of Rochford and Southend. It is important, however, to protect the other green areas such as agricultural land so that this area retains its village character and does not become another town. Approximately 250 houses have been built recently or are being built in Great Wakering and any further developments will lead to erosion of green belt or agricultural land and this should be resisted.
