I would also suggest that this is a wildlife corridor. Surely the building of so many homes with the associated light and noise pollution will destroy these corridors. I see [Redacted-sensitive information] in the arboretum and I am sure there are other species that will be impacted. Park Lime pits are across the other side of the proposed development - this can not be allowed to happen. In future years, I want to be able to bring my children to the arboretum not just for the manicured Victorian areas of the park but for the sheep, the cows, the [Redacted-sensitive information] (that I have admittedly only seen once) and the various birds and for the feeling of space that the open field views provide. Every inch of Green Belt is precious and every inch sacrificed squeezes the wildlife further.
