At West Durrington near Worthing, West Sussex, TESCO have started major archaelogical digging (ie stripping the first few feet of topsoil) despite still not having full planning permission for the project. We need to get in contact with people who are interested in opposing this.
Although TESCO's plans to develop the site at West Durrington (right next to an already existing TESCO which they will then knock down) have not yet been approved by the council, they have begun work already. The whole area has been fenced off and they have stripped about 3-5 feet of topsoil. They have security with two dogs hired to keep an eye on things. These "archaelogical diggings" are apparently going to continue for the next week and we just have to see what they will do after that. Whether they will start work immediately or wait until the planning is completely approved remains to be seen. The final planning meeting is scheduled for the 30th of July, so it is important to get any objections in before that date.
Would be good to see people down at Titnore woods soon to discuss these issues as the time is swiftly ticking on... Its difficult for us to see at the moment what we can actually do about it but hopefully with more input and ideas we can expand our angles.
Also we are holding a kids day/open day on Saturday the 25th of July (check the events page for more info) where we hope to have an open forum to discuss what can be done to oppose the development.
Check www.protectourwoodland.co.uk for more info, especially on how to send objections etc. Hopefully on the open day we'll have some information on all that stuff as well.
Thanks for reading, down with the supermarket culture that has us all in its grip!
