Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 11528

Respondent: Mr Nick Preece

Representation Summary:

Site: DUH217, Grazing Land Wollaston Farm, Stourbridge.

I object to the allocation of the above site for development on the following bases:

Public open space: The site is located within Community Forum 7, where there is a below-average quantity of open space. It was well-used by local residents in the past for informal recreation and has a high value to the local community. I believe the site should be re-opened to the public to provide a much-needed green space in this area. The site could additionally be enhanced for nature, for example by developing it as a wildflower meadow.
