ANGEL Farm Action Group members are to meet Forest of Dean District Council leader Peter Amos later this week over continuing grievances surrounding the Coleford housing development.

Spokesperson Karen Washington said they were still unhappy about access to the site area, differences between contamination reports from the group's hired experts and the council's own assessments, and the fact that hedges had already been destroyed during the bird nesting season.

Mrs Washington and fellow residents with homes adjacent to the site have been fighting the homes plan for several years. A fortnight ago developer Bloor and sub-contractors started initial groundwork.
