I do not agree with the proposal to develop the area for residential homes in Hobbs Lane. Beckley is defined in the AONB as a dispersed settlement based upon non agricultural rural industries. It is the will of Parliament as set out in section 85 of the Crow Act 2000 that Councils preserve & enhance AONBs. This proposal continues to destroy the High Weald AONB designation by proposing more houses where a considerable amount of social housing already exists. Villagers would like small developments dotted around the village.
