I was appalled to read that Wyre Forest district councillors had agreed to allow Brintons to build industrial units on their sports field.

If this land is designated as green belt land the district council's officers and the councillors who voted for it should be ashamed of themselves.

As Mike Kelly said in his letter last week, this land had been under threat for many years and it's a tragedy that as well as losing the excellent sports field, the green belt of land between Kidderminster and Stourport will be diminished even more.

How short sighted can you get!
