I live in Dines Close backing on to farmland which has been submitted for possible building. The land is excellent arable land and in the 15 years i have lived here has produced a good crop of wheat and barley. At the present time the farmer as not sown a crop for 2 years and i understand is receiving a set a side payments in my opinion he should not be getting tax payers money thinking he is going to get planning permission for building. The land should be compulsory purchased and another farmer be allowed to grow crops. The site is a haven for wildlife with deer, pheasant, partridge, barn owl, bats, and many other species. The Village as a whole has not got the infrastructure to sustain the amount of building proposed.
