Fenswood Farm (Uni)

Bristol University want to develop the triangle of land between Wild Country Lane, the railway and the bypass, with over 1000 houses, plus commercial development, a primary school, and so on. They are suggesting a railway station accessed from the site, but when questioned about the possible frequency of trains, they say it could be once an hour, and then only at the expense of trains stopping at Bedminster or Parson Street.

This is excellent agricultural land, and is immediately adjacent to the village. A development this size would fundamentally change the size and feel of the village.

North Somerset are opposed to all the large schemes on the Green Belt, such as this, but we cannot be complacent, and it’s important that as many people as possible voice objections to these plans.
