 There have been many plans to build houses on the site of the first Burgy by companies such as Barratt and more recently Woodford.However, concerns have been raised because construction on the land would require drilling into the core of the Burgies subsequently releasing dangerous chemicals into the atmosphere.The Burgy Action Group, a local action group made up of the people living close to the site, have successfully challenged the construction of homes on the land citing the dangerous nature of any chemicals released during construction.
