I lived in the Brighton area for many years and still enjoy visiting.

I am a strong football supporter but villages such as Falmer cannot be built or redesigned elsewhere.

Falmer is a place anyone can visit and enjoy and, in spite of the road junctions, is still part of our heritage and that of future generations.

Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty are so few that where they exist they should be enjoyed and proudly maintained as assets for not only for those who are lucky enough to live there but also for visitors from far afield.

I closely follow my "old team" and cheer when they do well but a marvellous new stadium must not be built at the cost of something as

precious as Falmer village.
