PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR BIAS AND UNFOUNDED BELIEF THAT EAST LISS IS A BADLY DESIGNED AREA. ESPECIALLY THE GREENFIELDS ESTATE THAT I FEEL HAS MATURED WELL OVER TIME.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT WIKIPEDIA IS AN ENCYCLOPEDIA AND THEREFORE A PLACE OF FACT NOT FOR BIZARRE PERSONAL BIAS OPINION WHOEVER YOU ARE Mr.80.229.218.245

[edit] POV
(User:Bearboy28 please sign your posts...)
The above is nearly as POV as the text complained about. I have removed the blatant POV of the original. The article needs a lot more work as to its sources. Djnjwd 00:42, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
oops, didn't sign. Apologies, new to this! User name is Monophysite.
The above POVS
I agree with Djwhatsit - a little too personal!
The large and ever extended estates concerned, built first by mass builder Harcos (who were bankrupted) and then by other uniform estate developers increased the village size at the time by more than 40 per cent. They contain no local style or materials and failed to respect the gradualistic style of development of the traditional Wealden village since the Saxon period. In fact these estates replaced beautiful landscaped gardens, and later important marshland habitats.
However, it may have matured, it is difficult to say that any appropriate design process was enacted in the dash to build in 1964-5 or later, which was very much a central government initiative now vehemently criticised by planners, the CPRE etc.
This argument reflects a classic contemporary argument in British architecture between the camps who favour individually designed houses of local style, characterised by Prince Charles well publicised views, and the other camp, favouring housing of a safe and sound semi traditional nature derived from 30's housing estates, often derided as "Barrett Houses" or "Noddy Houses", where style is characteristically uniform and critic say that any estate can be found in any part of the Country irrespective of tradition or local materials. The debate is largely being won by the former. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Monophysite (talk • contribs)

Jeepday! Should all links/referenced be made using the formula? Just external?
