Conservationists claim that plans to build new homes in Harold Hill are going to ruin the habitat of deer who roam the area.
Despite receiving 185 objections - and only one comment in support - an application to build five houses on the land adjacent to Priory Road was granted at the council s planning committee meeting on February 11.
But members of the Harold Hill Deer Aid group - already worried by pre-existing welfare issues - have voiced their concerns about the future of these much-loved local animals.
