Do you visit and enjoy the BRAG picnic area alongside the canal at Bowerhill/Seend run by the Bowerhill Residents Action Group (BRAG)?
There is an opportunity to seek further protection of its value as a community asset by designating it as ‘Local Green Space’ in the Seend Neighbourhood Plan, but they need residents to contact them and give evidence of why it’s an important community space.
To explain why it has particular local significance for example, because of its beauty, historic significance, recreational value, tranquillity or richness of its wildlife.
If you would like to pass on your views, please contact Seend Neighbourhood Plan via seendparishplan@ gmail.com and let them know why you think the picnic area deserves special protection against any future development.
