I was drawn to Springwell Village because of its cute village feel, developing on this land will effectively merge the village with surrounding estates and this charm will be lost. Before moving I researched Sunderland Council's plans for the villahe, the unitary development plan clearly states the village should be protected and enhanced, I fail to see how 500 new homes on green belt land is protecting, or enhancing the village. Hopefully the planning officers will refer to the document and reject and application.

I grew up with Springwell Village, I married and moved there. it has been developed enough, anymore will take away the village atmosphere. it does not need more shops, it does not need the extra traffic. leave well alone, thats what the villagers want. Thats why they moved there.this isnt about development it a money making scheme and Springwell village will not benefit in any way

I have been resident for 5 years and I bought a house here because I wanted to live in a village, not a suburb of Gateshead or Washington. Our greenbelt land is precious and much used by the community. There are plenty of brown field sites to build on in the area without destroying the areas character

I have lived in the village for 3 years and recently bought my first house here. I chose the village as the location for my first home because of the village feel, the wonderful community spirit and the gorgeous countryside surrounding the village. If the development goes ahead, the village and community feel will be lost and the countryside diminished. The very essence that is Springwell village and the character it holds will be lost. It wouldn't be the place I have come to know and love and it would be an absolute shame.

SAVE OUR GREENBELT already to much traffic going through the village, speeding, racing to get through traffic calming and parking on the main road to go to the paper shop opposite a junction and blocking the bus stop and zebra crossing will only get worse with the introduction of more houses in the village

Hellens has no interest in the welfare of Springwell Village but just to make a big profit from building on green belt land. It would be very interesting to know what financial clause Gair had in the contract if developed upon

I'm 56 years old and have lived in Springwell for most of those years until recently. These fields were my playground, part of my learning and a small haven for wildlife. they should remain as greenbelt. If someone wants to built new affordable houses there is plenty of brownfield land in Washington, Gateshead and Birtley.
