The area in question provides an important wildlife link between the Yare Valley and the Bypass Landscape Protection Zone. The scale of the development on either side of the river corridor strongly indicates that there is a real danger of the corridor becoming isolated from the surrounding countryside. This area of this site provides a strategic landscape break between Colney and Cringleford which also safeguards
the network of wildlife movement.

The River Yare and the Yare Valley must be protected for the sake of the wildlife that make it home and for the recreation and well-being the area provides for the people who visit it. There is no tonic like walking or running in a natural setting and we are so fortunate to have this so easily accessible in Norwich. This is in large part why I consider Norwich to be a Fine City. Please do not jeopardize this by allowing this beautiful area to be further developed.
