We are the 1st Skelmersdale Methodist Scout group (17th Ormskirk) and we should be celebrating our 80th birthday next year.
We currently operate from our base in Barnes Road,Skelmersdale and have been a vital part of the community in that time. We face the very real prospect of our building being demolished to allow housing development to take place on Barnes Road.
We are not against the development and we are grateful to LCC for the use of the land in the intervening years, We are of the opinion that access to the site could be granted further along Barnes Road, past Park Children's Centre and avoiding our building being demolished.
We therefore call on Lancashire County Council to re-consider it's planned access road for the site and to seriously consider the option of taking the access road further down Barnes Road: this would still allow access to the site and save our building from being demolished.
