Our Changing Landscape...

 


Taken from the moors behind The Avenue [Poolmead] see the new housing appearing at the top of the hill at Newtown. 

Big multi-bedroomed beauties going up, blocking the view of the long line of original Newtown homes opposite. 

Nothing like some unobtrusive affordable new housing for Langport and its locals eh!

We understand South Somerset District Council's objection to these [and the size of] these new homes was overruled by a government planning inspector in favour of the developper.

But the man in the street who wants to better himself and his family's prospects and get planning permission for a small house in his large garden is told he can't because "it doesn't suit the area".

Brilliant.
