EVERYWHERE I go in Darwen, there are more new houses being built.

Surely, they have used every bit of spare land and fields in the town.

It also means more new roads and you know what that means -- more traffic!

It now must be time to pull the plug on yet more houses being built and more lovely green fields being dug up by smelly JCBs.
