Action stepped up at Sharp Hill

Notts IMC | 12.05.2006 20:05 | Culture | Ecology | Free Spaces

The campaign to save Sharp Hill is stepping up this weekend with live music and a fresh call for support. A group of activists - with strong support from the community - have been camping at the site near Edwalton for a month in protest against Rushcliffe Borough Council's plan to build 1200 houses. They have pledged to stay at least until June 15 when the council makes its final decision, and encourage everyone to join them. A central government inspector's report opposed the council's plan. Read it (Sharphill from page 14), with the council's response.

Sharphill Woods & Area Report: Protecting Mature Landscape & Wildlife Habitat. layed out above here

This report prepared in support of the objection to Rushcliffe Borough Council and Bovis Homes, plans for the building of 1200 homes on greenbelt land.

This appears to be a well researched piece of work, and I think gives plenty information, and makes you wonder,why there, and wouldn't they do less damage somewhere else .......?

Greenbelt is worthy of protection. We hope you agree.

Thanks to Dr TJ Shepherd & JF Dobbs
