The majority of our large manufacturing cities are in decline—thousands of acres of their former industrial greatness have become gigantic scrapheaps. New industries with new technologies no longer make it necessary to locate industry in cities, and social and fiscal pressures are drawing people out into the countryside.
Thus a conflict is growing with cities dying for lack of industry and new housing—whilst conservationists resist the spread of development into the green belts or further into the rural landscape.
Yet perhaps this presents an opportunity to use waste land in cities to bring back the green space they have lacked since the industrial revolution whilst restoring to smaller towns and villages the vitality they lost with the drift of people to the cities to provide the labour force.
We urgently need a land-use policy which looks simultaneously at the towns and country and strikes a balance between urban and rural renewal.
