We would like to lodge our objection to the housing development on this land. Kingswinford & Wall Heath have already had heavy development with three new housing estates being built off Stallings lane & a fourth to be built at Kettley Fields. This already puts a strain on our local services with the NHS having long waiting times unable to cope with the volume of people in the area. GP surgery are also unable to cope. The local schools are already full which will only increase with more people/families, and there is strain on local amenities with no investment in our parks, youth centres or sports facilities. The roads are also incredible busy already. A journey which should take minutes will take half an hour, the road simple cant cope, with the volume of traffic not to mention the increase in air pollution.
You have said Brownfield sites would be used not greenfield, the loss of this land would be devastating to our local wildlife and their use as prime agricultural land to grow our crops. It is also used by many ourselves included as a place to wait to help escape and improve our mental health. This land needs protecting or our future generations and we wholly oppose this site being built on.
