What I stand for?
Cllr Daniel Divine said: "The issue of whether or not to build on Wenny Road Meadow transcends politics.
"History, ecology and local amenity makes this green space unique and must be taken into account.
"There is nothing else which would act as a substitute for Wenny Road Meadow within our lifetime. It is irreplaceable."
Wenny Meadow was originally created by the Dunn-Gardner family, who owned the Manor House in Chatteris, as the "Manor Park".
On Tuesday evening (February 4), the campaign group informed Chatteris Town Council that a paper-based petition supporting the retention of the meadow had gathered over 1,050 signatures from local residents, approximately 10 per cent of the town's estimated population.
The news comes after Local councillors, dog walkers, photographers and children were amongst the 40-something campaigners at the latest demonstration in January.
