Many local residents and Friends of Wincobank Hill and have raised concerns about a proposal to build a further 38 dwellings on the land along this muddy track at the end of Sandstone Road, past the reservoir, below the Scheduled Monument of Wincobank Hill.There are many and various reasons why this development should not proceed and FoWH are particularly concerned about the possibility that the building work will not only change the character of the hill but may irrecoverably damage the remains of the earthwork known as Roman Ridge.
At present there is a controlled investigation of the site and we have received many calls for information. As further details are provided they will be posted on this blog or the website so please keep checking both from time to time.
