Hockley Woods needs protecting as well as the area behind Folly Chase. Hockley woods is a godsend for the village and surrounding areas, and people come from all over to walk this beautiful and natural environment. Building houses on this would be detrimental to the area and would turn us into an urban area. Green space is a premium and the government initiative to move to more green spaces and reduce our carbon emissions by 2030 would not be achieved if you build more homes in this area. You need to stop building on green space.
