A great place to live but unfortunately the Wychavon planners are the most incompetent bunch you will ever meet. If you have a problem with a proposed development don't try objecting - it is 100% certain your views will be ignored. If you write to the planners on any subject you will NEVER get a reply. They could give lessons on how NOT to run a local authority!!
