Representation Summary:

My clients object to the entirety of their lands off Northampton Road being identified in the Local Plan as "open space, sport and recreational facilities"
The land as shown on the attached plan extends to 1.8ha however only approximately 1ha has been cultivated and used as allotments in the recent past. For the last 30+ years the vast majority of the area to the north of the access track has remained uncultivated whilst my clients pursued alternative use planning designations.
