Object to Kings Hill site:
Wainbody Wood is a protected site of natural interest. Bluebell carpeted woodland is home to badgers, foxes, crested newts, owls, woodpeckers, pipistrelle bats, blue jays and at least one pair of breeding buzzards. Habitat surrounding the wood is designated conservation area with many large, established trees fully protected with TPOs. All fields are bordered by hedges which are at least 100 years old. Most of these plants, birds and animals are unlikely to remain once development begins. This would result in serious loss of delightful local resource which has taken hundreds of years to become established.
National policy needs changing to prevent damaging such green belt land.
