Bexley Natural Environment Forum has objected to certain aspects of a re-submitted plan to turn an area in Bexley village behind (to the west of) the Old Mill, comprising an old stable block, and various dilapidated small buildings and caravans into new housing. The key area of contention is the proposed creation of an all-weather, flood-lit hockey pitch, and a new cricket pitch, on an area of semi-natural vegetation within the River Cray Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation, and the potential trampling of and disturbance to another part to be fenced off for use by the residents.
BNEF’s submission is reproduced in full below. The deadline for comments is 29th June. They should be sent to DevelopmentControl@bexley.gov.uk, quoting reference
