Area of Outstanding natural beauty destroyed
Area of Outstanding natural beauty and village planning envelope overturned by TWBC. We used to live next to a field, and had a beautiful view for miles. We felt we were safe because we were on the edge of a building planning envelope, where further development was not allowed (our house has been here for over 70 years). TWBC have ignored all this, and now we have a view of a new housing estate built on green belt land. It is not a matter of secret payments, it is entirely transparent how much the various public bodies are receiving for this travesty, schools, police etc. from the planning site. Meanwhile we are having to pay to have our garden waste bins emptied which used to be free. Shame on you TWBC
