Ooh err - I spotted surveyors on the the spare land on Thwaites road on Friday morning, oh I hope they don't build more houses :(. Has anyone any ideas what could be in store ? :confused:

Re: Ooh err

Re: Ooh err
 

Yes, but my parents live in Ossy and I spend most of my spare time in Ossy.

Re: Ooh err
 

Would you rather they put up tents for people to live in?

Re: Ooh err
 

I think the land is too marshy if you mean at the back of the houses on Stanhill Lane ?

Re: Ooh err
 

I'd rather the wildlife be left to live there.

Re: Ooh err
 

The 'wildlife' live on Wordsworth Rd nearby - perhaps there is a need to expand the ghetto.

Thats very unkind Margaret, I know somebody who lives on there is a fine upstanding gent:rolleyes:

Can't just see any Planning Applications which could relate to this land, DFO.

Last one was way back in 1974 where HBC applied for Landscape Area Reclamation for this Public Open Space. Well, if I am focusing on the correct piece of land. Does indicate, as Shurm said, quite a few drainage problems.

Will keep a beady eye open.

I think he must mean the land on the corner of thwaites road opposite the school, and next to the nursing home im sure it had planning permission a number of years ago but could have elapsed by now.

Re: Ooh err
 

Yes that's it .

Re: Ooh err
 

Its quite a big piece of land that is
