Re the Hedge between Hollins Lane and the field A8/9 in Arnside

This was so important that it should be saved for all its wild-life and trees that I had already spoken to the various authorities at the very start of the Pre-Publication Consultation.
I am sorry that I didn't put it as one of my comments in the first part of my response.

Re the sad news of Ashmeadow having to be sold by the Crossfield Housing Society (see Westmorland Gazette 6th July p. 5 ) and recently on view in the Comments with their hopes that the proceeds might be used for housing the elderly in new bungalows, I would like to take this opportunity to point out that such an offer could certainly fulfil our obligation to build a certain number of affordable dwellings here in the AONB area.

There is an area here in Arnside which looks ready-made for such development.
The elderly by their very constitution do not manage hills or rough ground as easily as they used to. They are more cautious of traffic. They need a shop and doctors within a short walk, they are less likely to own a car, and often enjoy riding a mobility scooter.
They may need easy access for a regular care visitor.

The old orchard just along Briary Bank offers a firm pavement on level ground a short walk from a shop, bus stop, church, dentist and doctors. The land is already designated for development. Where better?

The access to all these amenities together with like neighbours makes it possible to form a congenial community which would give an enclosed, comforting environment with a quiet area to sit out in.

Perhaps the Crossfield Housing Society has been following the Comments on this site and could give it some consideration.
