Black Country Plan
Building on green belt land: -
Queslett Road East / Aldridge Road
To whom it may concern,
I was shocked and dismayed to hear the Black Country Plan to build on the Green Belt land at Queslett Road East and Aldridge Road area. This is a small, beautiful area of countryside between the built up areas of Pheasey and Streetly, the fields sweeping up to the famous Midland landmark of Barr Beacon.
This small piece of Green Belt has given pleasure to the people of the local area for many, many years, and is a welcome piece of countryside already surrounded by concrete. Surely other areas could be used for housing.
The Black Country doesn't have the factories of old, and there must be plenty of Brown Field sites which could be used. Please don't ruin this beautiful area. Once these fields have gone, they will be gone forever, and future generations will never be able to see the beautiful green fields which we can all see and enjoy today.
