DESECRATIO­N NOT JUSTIFIED

-

WITH regard to the two letters for the proposed building of the industrial units at Townsend Fold.

Could I ask you if you would be willing to live with industrial units right up to your boundary wall? NO, I bet you wouldn’t.

The loss of beautiful views that I grew up looking at as a child, the fields in which I kept my horse, the dog walks I’ve done many hundreds of times, sorry but I can’t justify industrial units taking this away.

The noise will be awful, the view utterly dreadful, and for what? For existing businesses to relocate, leaving other units empty?

Are the home owners going to be compensate­d when the value of their properties devalue because of this? I think not.

Please, people who want to keep our green and pleasant land, write and oppose this plan.
