Threat to Towton Battlefield

5 January 2014

Please follow the link below to read the text of our letter of objection an application made to Selby District Council to make permanent the temporary permission to have two caravans sited on 'The Gallops' at Towton. This is adjacent to the current registered battlefield and within the new boundary of the battlefield which will be registered by English Heritage later this year. Selby District Council meets on Weds 8th Jan to discuss the application. Please take the time to place your comments on the planning portal so that they will be considered at the committee hearing. Your actions are very important and will have a direct impact on any outcomes.
