The adjacent existing magnificent Cedar of Lebanon trees, remaining from when the area formed the grounds of Hardwick Hall, could easily be retained and incorporated into the scheme. These pitches are owned by St Edmundsbury and they could be re-provided with the funds obtained from the sale to the hospital. This is deemed acceptable under the current Local Plan 2016 Policy L5 (ii). Indeed the sale should provide funds to expand Hardwick Heath to the south as far as Hencote Lane. The existing three pitches are only popular with teams because of the changing facilities. The pitches are the worst of those managed by the Leisure Centre regarding problems caused by the weather. They are hired by teams across Bury, so moving them would not present a problem of accessibility. This must be a better solution than relocation of part of a hospital. Noted.
