I FELT it was rather unfair of Mr Wayne Gradwell, managing director of Persimmon Homes West Yorkshire, to dismiss the genuine concerns of residents affected by the development off Occupation Lane as “rumours” – Building site flooding fears (Keighley News, April 19).
Old maps of the area clearly show the existence of springs and people who have lived here for any length of time can testify to the problems the springs cause.
What was noticeably missing from his comments, however, was any sort of apology for the excessive mess and disruption this development is causing.
