Church Street back under threat

13th January 2014
The Charity has learned from the Council Estates Department that :  

We will now be proceeding with erecting a close boarded fence along the length of the site. The first stage is for the line of the proposed fence to be cleared using hand tools.  This is due to commence in the next couple of weeks with the fence installation to start after.  Once the fence is in place the remainder of the site will be cleared of scrub and rubbish (the trees will be left). When the site has been cleared we will be able to proceed with getting a topographical survey undertaken and use this to draw up a proposed development scheme. 

The Council Estates department has supplied a new ecology letter from their ecologists which we have sent to the Independent Specialists in the area. The Letter explains that in line with Natural England wishes this fence will create a corridor along the wall.  We are awaiting comment from the Independent Specialists who were invited to comment last year.

Background last year in October 2012  the Police where involved with this site following complaint to the Wildlife Crime Prevention Office. This complaint  was not  prosecuted.
