[Redacted-GDPR] when we moved into our house we had lots of open spaces which we were told could not be built on. Since that time we have had to big estates built! In recent times we have had the Goodyear site been built on! The top of Kempthorn Ave has had numerous houses built in the grounds that was once a church. The pub on Showell Circus has also been developed. Northicote School grounds have been designated for 196 houses! The green opposite the shops in Broadway Bushbury is to be a doctors surgery (a new build) for two doctors to amalgamate.
The field which was once a playing field for Northicote School has been looked at before and redeemed not stable enough for houses! Our gardens do get a fair amount of water from this field. Now we discover that plans are afoot to build more houses - HOW MANY MORE CAN WE ACCOMMODATE? The woods which are a place of enjoyment will be affected and what provisions will be made to accommodate all these extra people? (DRS and schools). We feel these houses will have a detrimental effect on our neighbourhood! Happy to talk to someone!!!
