Time is running out to make your voice heard.
A developer is appealing Rother District Councilβs decision to refuse yet another holiday let on the edge of Bewl Water β a peaceful haven for wildlife and a cherished space for our community.
Weβre urging everyone who cares about the future of this beautiful area to submit a representation to the Planning Inspectorate before midnight on 21 October 2025.
Even if youβve already objected to Rother District Council, you need to act again β this is a new stage in the process. And remember, every member of your household can submit their own objection.
How to Object:
- Visit Planning Inspectorate
- Search for case 3372099
- Click Make Representation
π’ Please share this message with your friends, neighbours, and local groups. The number of objections really does matter.
Letβs stand together to protect the tranquillity, wildlife, and natural beauty of Bewl Water.
