Hide AdNow the Wiggonholt Association has joined the fight, calling for Glebe Field to be saved.
A spokesperson for the association said: “The Glebe Field, the only major amenity open space within Storrington, will be sacrificed, contrary to the intention of the Storrington Neighbourhood Plan which has come down strongly on the side of its conservation.
“We feel that the medical problem can be resolved without resorting to an unsustainable planning sacrifice.”
The association describes itself as an ‘influential champion of the West Sussex countryside’.
