Great Crested Humans
'Not open until later in 2008, newts willing.'
Hardly the fault of the newts!
See Relocation Double Standards for earlier information on the great crested innocents.
"In addition to the planning permission resolution, before work can commence on the site we will need to complete the statutory survey of Great Crested Newts at Hog Hill to obtain a licence for construction. We expect to complete this survey by mid-May 2007 and to be on-site in June next year but this depends on how long it takes to be granted the licence."
see: Hog Hill planning application
Looks like the newts will have taken the best part of two years to move. Longer than the human residents of Clays Lane.
