| Help us Save the Open Land
in Draycott.....October 2008 |
| Application
17/08/00127 has been REFUSED by Sedgemoor District Council!
This is great news and we would like to say a big thank you
to everyone who sent letters, signed our petition or helped
with our campaign. Click
here to see the reasons why the application was refused.
Mr Mike Pearce had applied for a “HOLIDAY
PARK” on the site at Draycott Cross roads. In essence
very little had changed from the last application and we are
very pleased that it has once again been refused (click

Our campaign was to save the open land in Draycott
with the following aims:
- We want to save the green land between Draycott and
Cheddar
- We do not want more traffic through the villages in
the valley
- We want to preserve agricultural land for future generation
This is also some of the
last remaining unspoilt green fields remaining
between Draycott and Cheddar, a little Green Lung
in an area increasingly being ribbon developed. Only the road
separates these fields from the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty (A.O.N.B). S.O.L.I.D has been
formed by concerned local residents who seek
to oppose this Planning Application. Our
ideal belief is that this Agricultural Land should remain
as a Green Lung between Draycott and Cheddar,
for the enjoyment of future generations and the preservation
of our beautiful environment, and that Sedgemoor
Planning REFUSE the Application.
