Objection to Quarrying at Shouldham Warren (AOS E) and the overlap of SIL02
Shouldham Warren (AOSE) including the overlap of SIL02 is a well loved place used by so many in our community and beyond. Bikers, hikers, riders, dog walkers, families.
I object to silica sand mining taking place in the area of Shouldham Warren, Sincks and the overlap of SIL02. These areas are used for outdoor exercise by all the above groups; young and old.
The loss of the area for the community and further afield would be devastating to mental health and well-being and, environmentally a disaster when the recycling of glass to reduce mining for silica sand is easily achievable. "Our environment is our most precious inheritance," says DEFRA. Trees and green space have become vitally important to us all, so I urge Norfolk County Council to not allocate AOSE and the overlap with SIL02 in their Minerals and Waste Local Plan, Preferred Options July 2019.
