Hollywood star Sean Bean has backed a campaign to save green belt land where he played as child, saying proposed housing developments would be a ‘tragedy’, reports The Times and Star.
The Times and Star writes:
Bean was brought up in the Handsworth area of Sheffield, where 1,638 houses have been allocated on green belt land as part of the city council’s draft local plan…
Sean Bean said ‘I know how good it was for me, and was a massive part of my life growing up in and around that area’… He said: ‘It would be a tragedy if that was all built over…’
