    Help Protect the Leven Valley


    The beautiful Leven Valley, a place of natural beauty is under threat from developers who propose to ruin what is in eect part of Yarm and Tees Valley s history.

    Maher Developments propose to ruin what is in eect part of Yarm and Tees Valley s history. They propose to build 450 retirement dwellings and a retirement home on the land which surrounds and forms part of the Valley.

    Why should this concern me?


    Important points to consider and why it should concern everyone living within the Yarm and Ingleby Barwick environment: The local identity of the individual areas of Yarm and Ingleby Barwick will be lost The special character and landscape value of the Leven Valley will be destroyed for ever Wildlife will be under threat Countryside and farmland will be decimated Highway infrastructures will not sustain the impact from this development, in particular Leven Bank, Green Lane and Yarm Town itself Adverse impact upon Ingleby Barwick & Yarm residents from the proposed footbridges which are to span the Valley linking the two communities, increasing pedestrian footfall through the housing estates

    The Leven Valley corridor between Yarm and Ingleby Barwick was identified in The Town & Country Planning act of 1990 as one of five important open Green Wedges in the Cleveland area. It was further defined as being an area of Landscape Importance and a wildlife haven, and should be protected as such.

    Please support the Leven Valley Group campaign to defend this area of Landscape Importance for future generations

    The Consequences of this development will eect everyone living locally - please give your support . Thank you - Protect Leven Valley Group.
