A COUNCIL meeting to decide whether to award College Fields Village green status has been criticised for taking place in Devizes instead of Marlborough. If village green status is refused for College Fields near Barton Park, Marlborough, the land could be under threat from developers in the future. Residents believe the meting’s location makes it inaccessible for Marlborough campaigners. Resident Peter May said: “The decision will determine the future of a piece of land that has been used by the community for decades.” The Commons Registration Committee is open to the public and takes place at 3pm on March 22 at Devizes Corn Exchange.
