Brewery Fields Arruga!

URGENT... strap on your harness, rub your face in the mud and head for North Wales - people are needed at Brewery Fields, near Bangor. Contractors have moved in to build a road and 300 houses and police are imposing 1/2 mile bail conditions.

Brewery Fields is a 30 acre greenfield site, containing woodland, meadow, marsh and heathland and has not been ploughed for over 40 years. The site is owned by Gwynedd Council but has been used as recreation space by locals for decades. They have been campaigning against the development for six years: the only reason that the Council is proceeding is that the land was designated for development in the 1950s.

Last year an application to turn the land into a Town Green was rejected, despite the fact that it was shown to have been used daily by residents as a green for over thirty years.
