Our open spaces are essential part of town
What makes our town unique is these open spaces. Already, too much building has taken place. Even in my lifetime, more than enough countryside has been eroded. The area between Norfolk Road and Rustington, apart from the convalescent home, was fields, while the Wickbourne Centre, then a chapel, was the furthest Wick extended in the west.
There is going to come a time when the building has to stop, simply because you cannot continue to expand.
