Sarah Walters, of Sustainable Warminster, said: Warminster is soon to lose another important area of green space if Wiltshire Council give the go-ahead to the building of 28 houses at the proposed Damask Way site.

Warminster housing scheme could lead to a 27 per cent loss in biodiversity

ENVIRONMENTAL campaigners protesting against a housing estate in Warminster say there will be a 27 per cent loss in biodiversity if the scheme goes ahead. Members of Sustainable Warminster have objected to the plans by developers Backhouse Ltd to build 28 new homes on land east of Damask Way, east of Upper Marsh Road and north of Smallbrook Lane. The area is a green escarpment close to the Smallbrook Meadows Nature Reserve and overlooks the River Wylye, and contains areas of rare acid grassland which supports protected invertebrate and reptile species. Its wooded areas support badgers and birds of conservation concernsuch as song thrush and tawny owl.
