This is an enlarged version of the boundary map. It can be seen better here

http://static.flickr.com/52/113906933_546ff7b728_b.jpg and it can be enlarged too. You can just see on the verticle line that goes right through where Ravenswood is now, that where is crosses the A14 there is a small 'c' and this can just be seen just below the bridge that crosses the A14 and leads up to Bridgewood. The road then runs along the side of the black line of the boundary and up to Bridgewood so it appears the car parks at Bridgewood are in the borough boundary but obviously Bridgewood is not. This used to be a lovely wood where we could drive down to the river but now hundreds of thousands of pounds later we cannot. I was watching a couple of lads on motor cycles on Tuesday 14th March about 4-50pm. They rode up to the fence and just lifted their motor cycles over it and disappeared down to the river. What earthly use is that fence other than to be a nuisance. I used to spend time over Holywells park as a kid and that now is in a terrible state to what it used to be and Landseer park is also still in need of draining and yet the council have taken on another park that is not even within the borough boundary. There has to be something seriously wrong here and I bet Mr Little has been aware of this when making planning applications. He probably banked upon IBC not challenging his plans for fear of their own behaviour being challenged so now another 200 dwelling are to be built on the Suffolk Coastal part. The single lane bridge over the A14 will now have to deal with over 5000 vehicle movements a day and any serious fire would cause the fire service very serious problems just accessing the site. Why have IBC done this? Has someone made a lot of money out of this? Who knows.
