Dear sirs
I am writing to you to inform you of my concerns in regards to the destruction of the local quarry. My environmental views of preserving the natural world forced me to write this letter of complaint.
Swordy Well is not just a quarry. It has been part of the community long before it was even a quarry, when it was a mere farm. However, as always there are those who like to destruct the beautiful, and within a few days the farm land was transformed into a quarry where you “picked [its] very bones.” Why you do this? all for the money, all for the “profit”. Have you not thought of how Nature feels in regards to your actions, have you ever even considered you may be hurting the land? With your actions, what you have done and again are proposing to do is to drag the land into “misery”. This land is beautiful, and has been destroyed by the barbaric actions of humans once already, why can it not be left alone? The enclosures act is no real reason for the inhumane actions that you propose. Even after being transformed into a quarry, Swordy Well still provided shelter for the disadvantaged local community. Swordy Well has given them shelter when no one else would, it has taken those who were left behind.
I dearly hope you consider this letter very seriously, as the land is nature, it is God’s gift to us, and it is not ours to remove. To remove it would be absurd, a war crime almost. I am committed to doing everything I can to protect Swordy Well from demise. I refuse to let the name “be the whole that’s left of Swordy Well.”
Yours sincerely,
James Harris
