Representation Summary:
The respondent objects to proposals that could lead to large-scale development in Ashley, emphasising the area's importance both as a home for residents and as a habitat for wildlife. Drawing on personal experience of growing up in Ashley, they describe the countryside, fields and River Bollin as central to local identity, recreation and wellbeing. The response highlights the value of the area's agricultural land, wildlife and natural landscapes, which support species including rabbits, pheasants, insects and birds. The respondent argues that development would result in the permanent loss of these habitats, diminish the area's rural character and contribute to wider environmental decline. They urge decision-makers to recognise the ecological and community value of Ashley's countryside and protect it from development.

Keep Ashley Green!
Dear to whom it may concern, I am writing in regards to the Keep Ashley Green campaign and wish you would take a moment to read this email.
Ashley has been my entire life since I was born and grew up on Hough Green for the past 20 years, watching the lambs every spring, my family playing and being closely involved with the local cricket ground where the sheep and pheasants live close by. I have most my early memories around the Bollin river such as "over-the-top-of-the-world" (the potato field) being a great place for cycling, walking and enjoying the gorgeous views of the rolling fields and the sounds of birds tweeting. If these fields are taken to build houses, all their inhabitants will be lost out if a home, baby rabbits, pheasants, crickets, dragon flies near the Bollin, and many more. This is their home and also mine. Not only mine but also a wonder for our dearest cats who enjoy the nature just as much as us. There is not much peace left on this earth with all the war, AI and climate change occurring, by removing Ashley's fields, you are paying a huge part in the destruction of our planet. What you might see as fields as housing space, they are home to thousands upon millions of creatures great and small, all with lives just as important as ours.
Please regard this email with great importance, yours sincerely,
