Hazelmere, I for one have no objection to the old school being knocked down, what I do object to is 19 flats being built on the site! Why not build one or two houses on the site this would solve a few problems. Rea, Can you honestly think that the residents opposite the 20 acres would be happy with a massive construction in front of their properties, there would be more outcry than the old shool. It would devalue their properties for one and a few other reasons I can think of but won't mention them on here(yes, a bit unusual for me, but there you go)
