We the undersigned wish to make it known that we are opposed to the development site in Gleamingwood Drive, Lordswood called the Lordswood urban extension. The objections are as follows: loss of ancient woodland, destruction of wildlife habitats, noise and subsequent air pollution from proposed biomass unit, road entrances sited on a fast and dangerous bend, increase in traffic entering and leaving this estate and a knock on effect of this is increase on the local road network named as Gleamingwood drive, Clandon Road, Lordswood Lane, Westfield Sole Road, Harp Farm Road and Walderslade Woods. This is almost the last surviving piece of ancient woodland in the Lordswood area and if this development is giving planning permission it could lead to the loss of any remaining ancient woodland in the area in the future.
