Dear Editor,
I am writing as a follow-up to the concerns expressed by Jonathan White in your 19 March article “Alarm over 220-homes plan for Wistaston” – namely Redrow Homes’ plans for large-scale housing development on farmland designated as part of the strategic green gap between Crewe and Nantwich.
Dear Editor,
As a concerned resident, I am alarmed by Redrow Homes’ plans to build 220 houses on a 12.6-hectare site off Crewe Road in Wistaston.
This area currently consists of open fields and grassland, forming part of the strategic green gap between Crewe and Nantwich.
