    Paul, the first people I wrote to were English Heritage, of whom I'm a member.
    Then to this Israeli bank. Now that was a month or two ago. I'd have to find the copy.

    But, out of memory, one thing pointed out was that there is already a very unpopular Whitfield development for 6,000 houses just outside Dover town in a green area, and some more in the Deal area.
    That perhaps they were not aware of these already existing development schemes, and that these were all round utmost unpopular among the local people.

    That Farthingloe and Western Heights are green areas of Dover, and to an extent Heritage protected areas under various organisations. That at present, these two areas are relatively free of traffic, peaceful and enjoyable.

    That whatever the developers had explained about doing Dover a favour in development, many local people have different views, and perhaps they should take this into account, rather than believing they are doing us all a favour.

    Hopefully, the reference to the Whitfield and Deal developments (Sholden and so), will alert this bank to the fact that we are being mass urbanised, and that 6,000 houses in Whitfield just outside Dover would equate to a population equal to Dover's present population.

    That we have had a notable increase in unemployment (over 20% in one year), and more and more people being settled here would just take more of our local jobs away.

    I gave a full view of the reality all way round, and bade them to take into consideration these views.
