Development land, Vearse Farm
Image: © John Stephen Taken: 15 Mar 2018
This waterlogged land is south of the B3162 West Allington and will be part of the Vearse Farm development of 760 dwellings, employment units, shops, a pub, school and old people's home. The plan is currently in the detailed design stages, and was agreed in principle by the West Dorset District Council despite vehement opposition from the local town and parish councils and population. One of the many objections raised was that of flooding and water run off.
