I CAN'T BELIEVE THE HEALTH CENTRE PLANS WERE EVEN PROPOSED

Dear Ed,

Re: Why leave the door ajar when it could be firmly bolted?

As a Hawkinge resident I have been reading the various articles about the proposal to build a new Health Care Centre o­n the o­nly remaining piece of woodland in the village.

I cannot believe that this has even been proposed. With all the spare land sitting next to Lidl and the Mayfly why has someone deemed it necessary to bulldoze this piece of woodland to build this, or is this land earmarked for the likes of Pentland Homes for them to build Terlingham Village phase 78!

What about the access roads to it?  Surely with Spitfire Way and the new extension road the ideal place to put this would be o­n this scrubland.

By the way I don't live o­n that side of Hawkinge so it wouldn't really affect me but I do feel for the residents of the 'Street' and all the people that have to use it.

Come o­n lets use some common sense. What's next,  perhaps a McDonalds in the middle of Reindein Wood?
