Objections over plans to station Traveller caravans on land in village
Original source: Yahoo News UK

Plans to station six caravans for Travellers on land at Beech Farm, Roundstreet Common, in Wisborough Green have been recommended for approval. The proposal includes six static caravans, utility buildings, and package treatment plants. Previously refused in August last year due to concerns about isolated location and water neutrality, an amended design has been submitted. Planning officers cited the council's lack of suitable Gypsy and Traveller pitches, with a shortfall of 13 pitches against a five-year target, as outweighing moderate harm to the landscape. A final decision is scheduled for June 10.
