This representation is made in a personal capacity as a local resident who has lived in the area for 40 years. The principal submissions that I intend to make concern: First, the need to respect and preserve the rare bell-barrow and tumuli immediately to the West of the interchange. This is especially important given the developing understanding of the pre-history of the area, such as the significant Bronze Age 'Ockham Hoard', unearthed 6 years ago, which points to an important Bronze Age presence here. Second, the need to preserve as much of Ockham Heath and Wisley Common as possible, for the enjoyment of walkers and horse-riders. The area is a popular location, as well as an important site for wildlife.
