Wychavon Council are currently proposing the location of quarries in the area and maps have been published of potential sites.

To put it bluntly they are very significant. Both sides of the Avon from from Lower Moor area down towards Wick and at the back of Charlton spanning to the A44 near Wood Norton.

I did email the BAA recently as there were information meetings being held by the parish councils but heard nothing back. I know in the past that the BAA have been caught out and lost fishing rights due to being in the dark over planning applications and stated they would welcome being told. It appears that this may not be the case after all.

If these sites went ahead then you could probably kiss goodbye to several Avon stretches. Hopefully, someone at the BAA investigates, registers an official interest and is able to offer an opinion during the consultation stage.

Amazing how a few missing pegs at pershore can get a response but potentially losing whole stretches is totally ignored.

Can't believe the baa haven't responded to your post lee, the £40 membership won't be such good value if they keep loosing water.

I’ve only just noticed this post,if true this is obviously very worrying.I will mention it at the upcoming meeting and try and find out some more information.

But I will also say that just because there hasn’t been a response to a forum post doesn’t mean that it is being ignored and management may already be aware of it and are dealing with it.I l’m certain that the potential of losing access to as much water as that would not be ignored.

If that's the case then it doesn't hurt to acknowledge the post. General courtesy.
