Dears, I was concerned to learn that planning is being considered for a building project on the Swanscombe peninsula. Such a development would have a devastating impact on the wildlife of Swanscombe marshes, which were recommended to become an SSSI very recently This area is home to some of our scarcest invertebrates and birdlife, it is a an area that should be protected and conserved for the benefit of all of us, not built on! Surely there are other more suitable sites that could be considered. We have too few such habitats remaining unspoilt in the UK and to knowingly destroy those that remain seeks to be madness. Please reconsider, this is a beautiful site that should be preserved for the future enjoyment of all.
