CPRE Sussex were warmly welcomed at Brightling Park International Horse Trials on 2nd July. We battled against high winds and blustery showers to assemble our stand but were rewarded with generous offers of help and by the glorious panoramic views of the High Weald countryside.
This landscape is stunning offering extensive ancient woodland, rolling hills, historic farmland bordered by precious hedgerows and the glimpse of distant church spires hint at hidden villages.
Visitors to our stand shared their deep concerns about the loss of green fields to development in their villages, the intrusion of low flying and more frequent aircraft over the Weald, housing without the jobs or the infrastructure and facilities to support the growth.
Many feel overwhelmed by the pace of development.
