With reference to the proposed building plans for Fletcher park and Canal Head areas I would like to say how appalled my husband and I are about possible access roads that might be built by widening the lane at the bottom of our garden and that of our nieghbours. I understand that this would mean compulsary purchase of a large piece of our gardens.
We have been living in this property for over 40 years and have cultivated and cared for this land for the same period. We appreciate that we have been very fortunateliving in such a loverly postion, enjoying the feeling of living in the country but also being close to town, school etc and have looked forward to the possible reopening of the Kendal Canal. The thought of the surrounding areas being completely spoilt and the fact that our property would be ruined let alone be greatly devalued is very distressing. Has anyone actually visited the area to see the impact that such a road would make.
