RESIDENTS angered by a plan to build 50 houses on open space north of Rabley Wood View in Marlborough have launched an e-petition against it.

The sons of late multi-millionaire Robert Sangster plan to develop homes on 1.7 hectares of Wiltshire Council-owned land in place of 14 hectares nearby owned by the Manton Estate.

Some residents say it would disastrously impact on the local community, infrastructure and environment.
