Talk:Great Baddow
|
Saying that the local council is responsible for "ruining the traditional character of the place" is not NPOV. Can anyone quote published comments from both sides of the argument? Can anyone provide a reference for this vote, too...? -- Oliver P. 01:23 9 Jun 2003 (UTC)
The entry was untrue. The new development took place on the site of the Vinyards, which was once a country house (I don't think it was ever stately, and then a hotel. There is sward at the bottom of the development which no doubt I would be accused of terrible exaggeration if I described it as a village green. From the row of trees which lined it, I believe that it was part of the grounds of the Vinyards. The Council did try and turn this into a car park, in the early seventies, but public pressure put a stop to this. Also please note that Great Baddow has never been a town.Harry Potter 00:47, 20 Aug 2003 (UTC)
