I HAVE watched since I was a child how Barry is slowly disappearing and losing everything that has made this a wonderful place to live in.
I was always fond of coming home when I was away. Now I have found that the place I once knew is no more, all because of stupid ideas that always seem for the best, but never are.
I refer to the wonderful place I knew as a second home, called the Cold Knap. This place will now be put into the book of the past, and no more children or families will ever come to know how special this place is because it is not cost-effective to some people.
Our local authorities seem to think that a yuppie housing development will be the answer to the financial problems, but this is a short-term remedy.
This beautiful piece of history is still within our grasp. Please do not give up, as once this has gone it will be gone for ever. God hope that the right thing will be done.
