I am writing to you to express my devastation at the possibility that Waveney Forrest (Fritton Woods) is under consideration for development as an aggregate pit. I appreciate that our ever expanding society requires resources, and the 'not on my back door' argument solves nothing, but I really cannot express enough how strongly I feel this would be a mistake. I am lucky enough to live very close to this wonderful wildlife habitat and frequently take my children to the woods. I see how many people also enjoy this space on a regular basis.
Also for consideration is the impact on wildlife in the area, the local heritage of the army camp and old train line, and the increased traffic on the already dangerous A143. I would like to ask that you consider these points when making your decision for a site.
