Respondent: Lyndon Jones

I am writing to object to proposed use of the Fields behind Peak House Farm/Peak House
Road/Wilderness Lane for development.

I moved to the area nearly 30 years ago because of the views from the back of my property across
the Sandwell Valley and the Beacon Way.

I take frequent walks around the area and the ground is riddled with brooks and sodden after only a
slight amount of rain.

My objections are many:

1. Loss of the green belt. We need the trees and hedges to help our carbon footprint.

2. Loss of habitat for wildlife.

3. Insufficient infrastructure to support anymore dwellings in the area.

4. Increased traffic, the A34 struggles with the amount of traffic now without increasing the
burden.

5. Damage to historical sites.

6. Loss of views and privacy to all the residents of Peak House Road and Wilderness Lane.

7. Decreasing the available land to absorb rainwater.

8. Please use other brown field sites first.


I appeal to you to protect our Green Belt before it's too late, we will never be able to replace it
no matter what considerations are imposed on the developers.
Please acknowledge receipt of this objection before the deadline.
