OUR MISSION
Fighting to save our beautiful town from the inappropriate and ill thought out c3 million square feet giant warehouse developments currently being planned for the A5/A43 roundabout and at the A43/Whittlebury junction.
The resultant traffic chaos, 24 hour air/noise and light pollution, and the sheer size - up to 77 ft (23.5 metres) of these warehouses will impact on our environment, our health, our quality of life and will destroy the character of our historic town forever. These developments must be stopped.
WE CAN'T DO THIS ALONE - WE NEED YOUR HELP
WHAT WAS PROMISED
"To conserve the tranquillity of the natural and built environment in South Northamptonshire through high quality design that is respectful to heritage assets and their settings, biodiversity and the environmental character of the locality and the surrounding landscapes."
