Residents Gill Moore, Sheena Grassi and Jan Hall have been working for almost a year to protect their beloved village green in Broadhurst Grove, Lychpit. Two areas of communal green space in Lychpit could be protected from development by the council. The village green off Broadhurst Grove and ancient hedgerows on Saxon Way were sold off by developers after the council failed to enact a section 52 legal agreement to transfer it into its possession. But now, the authority says it is considering designating both spaces as local green space in the local plan update which will protect it from the threat of development.
