Save the Downham Market and Wimbotsham green space.
Dear Council members.
Hundreds of local residents objected to the development of the green space between Wimbotsham Village and Downham Market. Please support the public and vote against any policy that includes this land for development.

Why is this important?
This high quality agricultural land represents the last green space separating the rural village of Wimbotsham and the sprawl of Downham Market. It also borders a conservation area. Developing this field will facilitate the future destruction of the last natural and untouched open space available to the residents of Downham Market. This is an area of great biodiversity and natural beauty used for recreation by residents for more than twenty years. Development will destroy a rare elevated panoramic fenland view.
