The site is said to be a site of natural beauty and to house a lot of wild life it belongs to the Albury estate and is looked after by the Wildlife trust.
By bringing the ski hill to Newlands corner it would mean lower access/car park being in Albury village itself...with no ideas yet we could have a restaurant at base that could possibly be an extension of the one exciting at the top, with this we could sell meals throughout the day using local sourced food. The Public houses and guest houses around the area would increase their business and provide a much larger income for the community.
Agreed Newlands corner itself is a fantastic and beatiful area but may I add so are all the Mountain Resorts in the world and the site I've actually marked out joins up right next to the back of a very large landfill site and is dirctly beside and underneath the A25...very busy road! By sealing off an area for the Piste could we also have some areas beneath the Chair lift also sealed off for wild life?
This wildlife area would add to the already natural beauty of newlands corner and with the chair lift giving access to the hill for the people from the village itself with out the use of a car.
I think all round this would be a fantastic oppitunity for the area and I am in the process of putting a survey together as well as some articles for the local parish magazines.
