Prunella Scales, President of the CPRE from 1997 - 2002, has fronted a video campaign to halt the destruction of a special stretch of the River Wylye, near Warminster. This stretch of the river is a SSSI and SAC, and one of only a handful of chalk streams in the UK. Locals are campaigning to prevent a unique piece of green landscape, Spurt Mead, being built upon.
See the video:
The Stop the development of Spurt Mead Warminster campaign is appealing to people to sign the petition in advance of a planning meeting on June 11.
