This is sickening to see ! Ive been making occasional videos myself covering what they've been doing to harlestone firs, but i havent been up there in a few months now ... seeing the road, and the building site thats destroyed Dallington Heath in your video is infuriating ! I knew it was coming but to see it actually in full swing now is different, nobody in Duston wanted this Shit ! Scumbags that dont give a toss about duston are destroying our home more and more each day, ive been here all my life, 43 years and i cant tell you how angry it makes me, and not knowing how to stop it, i feel powerless in the face of this Evil ! ...so sad to see places i love being changed forever amnd ruined! ...... ps your footage was great, i just wish it wasnt of this abomination 👍🏻 thanks for showing us

Lm.

We haven't done this walk in Fuerteventura, added to our to do list! Great you got some drone footage in too, amazing views! New followers, looking forward to watching more, kindest regards, Simon and Elaine

Great work Clare! You've got some great footage there!

Thanks Clare, From the footage it is clearly not a relief road. Not an easy route for HGV from M1 to Moulton Park with all the roundabouts to negotiate. So sad to see our countryside destroyed.

Thanks Clare, more great drone footage. Nice to see Annie. 😎👍

When will the people in charge of Northampton realise that we can have no more developments in the town somebody must be making a lot of money

Already getting road kill. Deer splattered

All sold to the locals as a relief road to ease traffic congestion but we all knew it was really just to open up the countryside for development. Thousands of new homes and thousands more cars. For this they will need to build another 'relief road... 'ad nauseam...

Love the thumbs up from Toby 😂😂😂

The blind exits on the roundabouts tell their own story!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention - it really is behind closed doors - lovely filming a really empathetic view of what we are going to loose, thank you

The trees are what spak up all the toxins from vehicles and now trees gone all over the county and thousands more vehicles = far high pollution in environment so cancers chest complaints etc will escalate too

Thanks for the video clare. As a regular walker around the fir's this is very sad to see. When the trees were originally being cleared at the back of Lodge Farm there was a sign/notice from Althorpe Estate stating the tree clearing was not for development but just natural forestry management. The knock on effect is very worring for wildlife, flooding, population, pollution etc..

Thank the planners for the total destruction of our once beautiful County. Not content with destroying our Town they have now embarked on the systematic destruction of our local countryside. Upton, Harpole , Rothersthorpe and Kislingbury are all being destroyed. And that is only this side of Town. Sywell, Overstone and Moulton have almost gone too. Well done for highlighting this destruction being done in the name of progress,

Hi Clare, I think that area that you're filming is going to be called Dallington Grange. 2 months ago I was walking through that field to get to Harlestone Firs. Btw thanks for doing these videos. 👍

Very good Clare that is the first mention of the company name i have seen on here and we would be willing to sell the piece of land involved if the WNC would sit round the table with us 😇

1:45 Wow the scale of this is awful - Harlestone Firs used to be a healthy lung for local people to enjoy and seek peace in and now it is cleared and the size of a small town and the roundabout with the short left turn says it all about what will happen in the near future

Wow going to be massive estates what hospitals will all these people use , Drs Dentists etc etc

Parking?

They look awful we cannot cope with this building going on in this little town .. traffic doctors dentist schools ..all full ..stop building

yo I ride my dirt bike there all the time im the reason there is tyre tracks everywhere

I really miss it being this quiet. TF is miserable now

OMG open now lets see what problems there will be lets hope none thanks again Clare

It’s actually open! In Kislingbury after having ridden down here on the moped. It’s not great, but it’ll have to do 👍🏼

Thanks again Clare your footage has always been a great help so meny roads now coming off the old sandy lane the cronical and echo saying opening 28th June unless I read it wrong and that the it has taken so long partly due to unauthorised development dont understand that as why was the council not checking and signing off developments off roads at stages also such a shame about the plant nursery there has been a business there for a very long time years and should be compensated as should duston and harpole which wouldn't happen but why put the council tax up again should have left it as was for 2024 the whole thing has been a disaster a lesson on how not to negotiate with developers

Great footage Clare, always grateful for the updates! This development is a complete shambles, embarrasing. The roundabout that leads to the old Sandy Lane will have so much backlog of traffic. Terrible... lets hope for an opening date soon, just to ease the congestion on Harpole.

Hey Clare, it's Logan from the Chron and Echo. Great footage. Are we ok to use your video again, please. Trying to put pressure on this week for a confirmed opening date. Thank you

Nice!

Phil Larratt is clearly a man who does not like to be rushed about issues like this

Thanks for this Clare

Dont think we are being informed whats really going on Northampton council don't seem to care either

Sure an article on line from the BBC about sandy lane thay said it probably won't open until June its all seems very strange whats going on first its on open due to a disputed bit of private land now saying about the developers finishing the road to nowhere none of which should affect reopening sandy lane thay can continue to dispute the private land the road to nowhere has been like it is for the last fifteen years or thay say it needs safety checks the developers gave a time for opening so should have done safety checks before that date so what is really going on all a bit strange

Great drone footage as always what is wrong with Northampton council sandy lane duston end is not a new road its been there years so get on and open it thay should never have let the developers have the upper hand

Excellent Drone footage of the 'Unauthorised Works'

Thanks let’s hope it’s sooner rather than later.

This is ridiculous now hope Northampton council will serve a penalty notice to the developers for not opening sandy lane on there given time the two business on sandy lane should be compensated the villages disrupted should not have had there council tax increased this year come on Northampton council open the road brilliant video

The WNC have stopped the relief road from opening due to 'Unauthorised Works' in the construction process so this could take a while to resolve sadly 🙃

awesome video well done 👍

Great video, it's good to get an aerial view of what we don't have access to. Did I see the new Doctor's Surgery?

What an eyesore

It’s ruined

For a minute I thought this was footage of Putin building luxury soviet appartments in Mariupol

Absolute farce but you wouldn't expect anything else from the people running Northampton Council.
