Dear Sirs
 

The Open Spaces Society (formally the Commons, Open Spaces and Footpaths Preservation Society) was founded in 1865 and is Britain's oldest national conservation body.  It campaigns to protect common land, village greens, open spaces and public paths, and people's right to enjoy them.

 

 We strongly object to the inclusion of land at Bardsea being included for consideration for development.  On Map 43 the land is referenced RN102.  This land is registered as common land as CL112 and is also access land under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000.

The land  is protected under the Commons Act 2006 (previously the Commons Registration Act 1965) and no building or works can be carried out without consent from the Secretary of State under Section 38 of the Commons Act 2006.

In addition the public have the right of access on foot over the whole of the land.

Any proposed development would be completely contrary to the above designations and we would ask that this area be withdrawn from the proposals.

Yours faithfully

 
Nicola Hodgson
