HS2 proposal is really bad news
This scheme has serious implications for wildlife in the area; it goes straight through the middle of both Wintersett and Rabbit Ings and along the side of Carlton Marsh. It also goes through Wombwell wood and very close to Barrow. All this so that well paid yuppies can get to London half an hour faster.

As a railwayman I have always been pro-rail, but I never expected this. The route does actually cut right through our northern plantation at Carlton Marsh before heading for Rabbit Ings as you say.
At least it has been diverted round George Osbourne's constituency!
