NEW TOWN DEVELOPMENT:

Protecting 780 acres of farmland, from housing development.

There is a proposal in place to build an entirely new town on the outskirts of Diseworth and Castle Donington. This development would see the destruction of the rural environment and wildlife habitat. A loss of prime agricultural land that currently produces 2,976 tonnes of wheat, making enough bread to feed 1/3rd of Nottingham.

  • Destruction of the rural environment and wildlife habitat with 53km of hedgerows

  • Loss of prime agricultural land, producing 2,976 tonnes of wheat, making enough bread to feed 114,000 people for a year, that’s a 1/3rd of the population of Nottingham

  • No infrastructure
