Oakham Town Council, decided not to support my request to save the land.

They decided led by Cllr Alf Dewis, my proposal to work with the community to purchase the land for the public was a task far too big for the town council.

Smaller parish councils have purchased land like this, I wonder what size project this Town Council could handle. My guess is nothing.,....

I hope the residents succeed with out the help of the Town Council.
