This news makes me feel sick. How can our beautiful county be in such danger of desicration. We have so little beauty left in the south-east corner we need to treasure what we have. I can’t believe that the Government want to ruin the countryside here.
There is more to lose than to gain in this ancient woodland of outstanding beauty. Drilling is not acceptable, it paves the way for future drilling in places where community and nature are shared.
