This compartment was once wooded, but is currently set out under DR2 to be a new football pitch. This doesn't make sense as it is separated from the sports facilities and will have deleterious impact on the neighbouring woodlands. Already there is insufficient semi natural habitat in the locality and an oversupply of sports facilities, play parks and kick about areas. There is no objective demand for more sports facilities.
