In
the early 1980's, SCC decided to sell this wood for housing. A group of
residents fought for the woods and
won. In 1993, SCC transferred the wood back
to the NHS. It has strategic open plan classification, but this does not
ensure it's safety, so I am applying for Village Green Status, (supported by the
LRA), to safeguard the wood for future generations.
Many
birds and animals are seen here,
including song and mistle
thrush, coal tits, field mice and bats. Village
Green Status
would ensure that the land would remain open and unbuilt on.
If
you, family, or friends have used Leach Grove Wood, (behind Leatherhead
hospital) whilst living in Leatherhead, at any time in the last 20 years, would
you fill out a simple 'Evidence of
Use' form? My application is in and
accepted. I need 340 more forms by May 1st . For forms :
