About a year ago, I looked on the Buglife map, and discovered that my village had a buglife area near it. I then discovered the Woodland Trust had planted a wood about half a mile from my house, and there were long eared owls, kestrels and sparrowhawks living near me. I am 68, and was truly excited. I hope you will allow people near Swanscombe to have the same pleasure as me. Natural England has recommended Swanscombe to be declared a Site of Special Scientific Interest. It has rare and endangered bees, spiders, beetles, wasps, Marsh harriers, bearded tits and nightingales. Bats, water voles and otters. Please allow wildlife to stay, and get developers to use brownfield sites.
