There has been significant change as the land was previously not included in either the 2017 0r 2019 versions of the plan. The area was put into the the green belt by Warrington Borough Council as recently as 2006 and green belt boundaries are supposed to endure.

In 2004, a planning inquiry found that Thelwall Heys should not be developed as it functions well as green belt. The surrounding area has not changed, so i do not know why the Borough Council now feels that Thelwall Heys is now appropriate for development.

Thelwall Heys has a unique character. It forms part of a Green Belt barrier preventing Thelwall from sprawling into the country side. It also protects the Bridge water Canal and its towpath, and species of wildlife and their protection maintaining rural peace and quiet which is enjoyed not by only local Residents but visitors from outlying areas

Releasing green belt will risk that developers will be less likely to develop brown field sites near the Town Centre. The plan has no power to sequence development. With the above in mind i strongly urge the Borough Council and its Members to reconsider the plan.
