They say it's going to be environmentally friendly but looking at the third link it looks huge, would destroy the climbing there and possible reptile habitatas. They say they're going to build a climbing centre in it but the ambience and quality of climbing in the place would still be destroyed and it doesn't look like there's any climbing in the climbing centre anyway

Anyone who aggrees with me that this should not go ahead you can object to the planning application here.
