Hollin Gate Development
In 2022 a Planning Application by PROSPECT HOMES was passed
they are building 200 Houses on Hollin Cross Farm
this site is now know as Hollin Gate.
The developer intends to excavate a large retention basin / pond swamp behind the houses on Glen View Road
at the bottom of this NEW Development.
THIS is a potential DEATH TRAP to local children.
PROSPECT HOMES show in their plans that this is open space, an Area for Recreation.
Burnley Borough Council has refused to fence this area off.
Since 2012, more than 40 children under five have drowned ........
Why is the Hollins Gate Development Retention Basin a Danger to Children Read more.....
This Retention Basin/Swamp/Pond WILL affect everyone in this area, ANY flood related issues that affect surrounding houses will mean the all adjoining postcodes in the area will be classed as AT RISK, premiums will rise, so people may not get insurance or be classed as high risk.
DO NOT believe the line peddled by the Council and Prospect Homes that the Lancashire Local Flood Authority say it is not a risk.
When a property floods ALL houses close to that property are deemed a RISK by insurance companies.
1000s of extra cars will be added to the roads in this area and they will all be trying to avoid the bottleneck of Glen View Road, Rossendale Road and Manchester Road.
THESE CARS WILL use the narrow roads of the estates opposite the New Development.
16,000 kids every year - more.......
