I and other members have been asked to support Hever Castle in opposing the second runway at Gatwick. I agree with the castle’s reasons for opposing as this is an area of outstanding beauty and a second runway would mean more planes overhead so more noise pollution. It would be a great shame if Hever Castle became a less attractive place to visit due to this as it’s an amazing place steeped in history. We want the castle to continue to give future generations the chance to still enjoy this wonderful place and not to be spoiled by something that could be avoided.
