Plans to build on green spaces in Springfield and Downs Barn shock residents
We've been out talking to residents about plans that a Labour Cabinet member "has been overseeing" to add two areas of green space in Springfield and one in Downs Barn into the Council's list of sites for potential future housing development. Residents whose houses back on to one of the Springfield sites, which stretches from the back of the pub to Stamford Avenue and Graveney Place, weren't happy with the idea that their green space, which includes a very popular new play area, could be built on.
