Don't build in centre

I have lived and worked in Oswestry all my life, 42 years of it. In that time a lot of building has gone on, especially on green land.

The population is rising yet still no decent facilities, although they say it's coming - leisure and sport centre, finally a bowling alley at Park Hall is being built, but we're still missing a cinema.

So hats off to people fighting to save the green for future generations. The town centre is congested enough without more traffic caused by ill-thought out health trust plans.

Remember the district hospital? What a waste. If you want it, build it on the Smithfield, loads of room there for concrete heaven.
