I have been campaigning against plans for a dirt track in West Wood Nature Reserve. I cannot understand why Castle Point Council has agreed in principal to put a dirt track in an ancient nature reserve that is a home to badgers and other wildlife as well as ancient trees.

Castle Point Wildlife Trust has also recently been doing an excellent job in bringing the woods back to life and getting it back to its former glory.

We all understand the need for more facilities but not in the middle of a reserve.
