Dear Sirs, I have lived at [Road] all my life opposite the proposed site. I am alarmed that it has been put forward with so much Brown field sites available. Apart from the obvious traffic issues the area will not be able to cope with more houses and people. The field adjacent to my house provides drainage and we are still prone to flooding along Worcester Lane. The main road and amenities in Hagley will simply not cope with more people. I walk my dog everyday across the fields and have had access for many years to the field opposite. The wildlife present is of great concern and must be considered. I have erected several nest boxes around the perimeter and Blue, great and coal tits have used these every year. Lapwings & Skylarks nest in the grass we have 3 species of owls hunting the fields. Barn , Tawny & Little Kestrels, buzzards and sparowhawks are also seen.
Mistle Thrushes, song thrushes, Blackbirds, Wrens, Robins, Chaffinch, Gold Finch, Green finch, Yellow Hammer, Bull finch, Linnets. the list is endless. Not to mention the muntjac & foxes, wild flower butterflies and insects. I could go on.
All this must be considered and looked after our wildlife needs these areas and it is vital to the environment. This must not be allowed to vanish forever...!!
