SITE B - COMMENTS BY OCTOBER 9

Check out the planning application for land west of Wallingford: 555 houses, a one form entry primary school, associated road works and lots of trees to go.... The deadline for comments to SODC is October 9th, but let the Parish Council know what you think, too - it could be your last chance.

Here's the link to the SODC application>
