In the Forest Journal of 1 September 2016, our MP, Sir Desmond Swayne, reproduces the objection he submitted to the planning authority, and calls on the National Park Authority to “Reject this damaging application”.

In his New Forest Notes for September (Lymington Times, 3 September 2016), Anthony Pasmore writes about the threat to the archaeological record imposed by the proposals to “restore” Latchmore Brook;  and two letters of support were published in the Lymington Times dated 10 September 2016.
