Don't build on play area

I am concerned about Telford and Wrekin Council's proposed redevelopment for the area known as Lakeside in Priorslee. The council proposes to build 600 houses on an area that is currently a park, including a football pitch, children's play area and open space including many trees, bushes and hedgerows.

This area is used by children all round Priorslee to play in and many people walk their dogs here.

The football pitch is used regularly by local teams.

Please don't let the council destroy yet another green area.
