It is vitally important that this natural site within the Yare Valley is protected and the continued encroachment of development is stopped.

The site is an important area for wildlife and is widely used for recreational purposes by walkers - a much valued asset to the area.

The locale has already seen significant development pushed through planning, all with significant loss of our green spaces. The huge development on the Bartram Mowers site currently under construction having taken a large slice of the Yare Valley corridor already. The UEA buildings that now cover the entire Blackdale School site, significant other accommodation within the campus area and other sites built upon in recent years.

The proposals are far too vague, not in line with other proposals. There is no clear need for the UEA or others to develop this site.

The GNLP must protect and not under value our green spaces.
