Petition for Referendum re: Area of outstanding Natural Beauty Protection by Andy B on Monday, 28 March 2022

Richard O'Calleigh writes: The local council have been trying to put a café on our Ancient Hillfort (Cambodunum) for many years. And there have been several planning breaches by the applicants, as well as contravention of greenbelt regulations by the Council. This has to stop.

The Café and any further development on the site cannot be permitted to continue.

This is a beautiful majestic hillfort in the heart of the country with a spectacular position & it is already a Grade 1 listed ancient monument site. The site & surrounding land is also by a remarkable and unique geological land feature, the Pennine Hills & Ridgeway & ancient flood plains.

This easily qualifies the Site & surrounding area to be made into an area of outstanding natural beauty. The site Should have the same respect & protection as Cissbury & Chanctonbury ring hillforts, Old Oswestry Hillfort & Maiden Castle.

Please sign to help achieve the 15633 signatures. So we can override Kirklees Council with a Referendum to create this new form of governance over the area.
