Residents Sell up as the Developers Move In

It rather noticeable that the number of for sales signs are increasing in village of Barleythope. People are clearly trying to moving out of the area before they get swamped by new homes, football pitches and a college. They are voting with their feet.

 
They are moving out before they get swallowed up by Oakham and the development planed by Larkfleet and their subsidiary Hawksmead Ltd and who can blame them. Any opposition to the scheme has been squashed by Rutland Country Council who have turned a deaf ear to the opinions.  They fell they have been ignored from the people I have talked by the people that have elected them. 

Personal I think they are right, the Rutland County Council and the developers have drawn up their plans together and that is the end of the matter. It is a done deal.
