The whole nature of Kempston Rural is being changed making it an Urban environment. There is still plenty of scope for development in Kempston Urban but I suspect that for the developers it is cheaper and more profitable to rip up farm land. This plan like so many has all the platitudes of a great marketing exercise which will destroy the character of this wonderful rural environment for profit of a few. It will not be long before KR parish will be yet another faceless over crowded, unimaginative development.
