St Paul's Walden Bury Estate Company manages a small area of country between the busy urban cities of Luton, Stevenage, and the towns of Hitchin, Welwyn, Harpenden. This green area provides a lung for the industrial centers, allowing people some recreational countryside to enjoy. There are many popular rights of way, woods that attract hundreds of town dwellers. Already the peace of the countryside is regularly shattered by aircraft noise, and an expansion of the airport will make this worse. Like thousands of others we value the environment and try to preserve this small, beautiful area, and oppose the expansion of the airport. The value of properties in this area will go down if the airport expands
