I support the general principle, but it's important to make public spaces VISIBLE to the public. The disaster of the public space at Ravensworth Gardens (misnamed) and the underused public space at St Matthew's Gardens are proof of this. There is a danger that the Mill Park space will be underused, being relatively invisible and not adjacent to a public thoroughfare.

I suggest making the southern green space larger, more inviting, and more suitable for community events. To that end I would relocate the proposed houses west of The Limes to Mill Park, and expand The Limes park to connect with Gatehouse Court.

A further justification for this rearrangement is that the front rooms of houses facing Mill Road bridge would be overlooked by people crossing the bridge. Relocating these houses to a quieter and more private space within the development will make them more valuable.
