I object to the council desecrating more green areas in the Ore Valley area. We need all the trees and other wildlife we can keep, or there won't be any left. If the council are short of housing, knock the old ones down and rebuild them, there's plenty enough around the town, I'll show them where!

The Upper Ore Valley - 'Speckled Wood' (A01 and A30) Options for Protecting Areas of Land

I/we oppose the development of the Upper Ore Valley, which is also called 'Speckled Wood'. Of the three options proposed in the consultation, I/we support option C which would protect all the land in the Upper Ore Valley that does not have planning consent. However, I/we would prefer to see the area of land next to Victoria Avenue also protected even though it has planning permission.

We support the aims of Ore Community Land Trust that the whole area should be redesignated as protected green space and enhanced for community use and protection of wildlife habitat.

The surrounding built up area is densely populated and there are no other accessible green spaces for leisure or children's play to comply with the Hastings Borough Council policy aim - 90% of households should have access to green space within 300 metres of their home by 2013.

The valley is a wooded and steeply sided ghyll and should have been included in the Council's Parks and Open Spaces Strategy. The woodland and footpaths have been used by local people of all ages for very many years.
