I have recently noticed on local websites and newsletters that their is a draft document outlining allocations for future development
of local green belt areas.

I have lived in the area for over five years and moved here in the first place because it was an area with surrounding fields, parks
and farmland. When I studied at University I remember a tutor quoting that green belt land was provided so it could never be built on.

In this country there is far too much unneccesary over development and the relevant 'belts' were introduced to put a halt to the urban spread.

Why now should 'England's green and pleasant land', to quote the hymn, be destroyed so that developers can squeeze more profit for themselves at the detriment of the local area. The extra housing is not wanted by the
people who live here and would further congest and pollute the already stretched road network. The local schools and doctors are already full
to capacity and have waiting lists, and these and other local services should not be required to take any additional pressure.

People choose to live in areas such as ours to enjoy the local countryside and environment - please do not take it away from us.
