Welcome to Stop Ardenvale Development (SAD)

There is a new application for building on LITTLE WOLD and the fields behind.
 
WD/2023/2472 Click on the link and see the application
 
Their new ruse is: 
 
Only 15 houses – only 5 affordable?
“A Farmstead development” – but it is new build?
A playing field for the school without facilities?
 
Is this better – NO!
 
The Number of Houses Do Not Matter
 
BECAUSE……
 
THE LAND IS AONB
 
FARMSTEAD DEVELOPMENTS ARE BUILT FROM EXISTING BUILDINGS
 
THERE ARE NO BUILDINGS ON THIS LAND
 
THIS IS AN ISOLATED ELEVATED HOUSING ESTATE AT THE EDGE OF THE VILLAGE OUTSIDE THE DEVELOPMENT BOUNDARY.
 
AND
 
THE DANGEROUS ACCESS ON STATION ROAD HAS NOT BEEN IMPROVED
 
THE DANGEROUS CROSSING OF BACK LANE IS THE SAME
 
KNOCKING DOWN A GOOD 4 BEDROOM FAMILY HOME
 
DARK SKIES WILL BE LOST DAMAGING THE ENVIRONMENT
 

WRITE NOW to object AS BEFORE BY EMAIL OR HARD COPY LETTER
 
WRITE BEFORE MONDAY 11 DECEMBER 2023
 
What you say against this development is important, we need you!, 170 letters of objection last time can we have even more?
 
Please tell you neighbours and friends
 
Just to be clear:
 
We are not against more housing in Groombridge, but we are against building on this location. The wrong buildings in the wrong place on AONB outside the existing development boundary.
 
It is NOT another Newton Willows. It is not a development on a brownfield site, a redundant railway goods yard in the centre of the village with existing access.
