Hythe Protest: Don’t Build On Historic Land!

Hythe Protest: Denouncing the loosening of planning regulations which will make the development of a historic part of Hythe even easier.
Mark Brophy lives in Seabrook on the Kent Coast. He is also an author and published his first book, "The Prince's Parade" in 2019. The book was inspired by the love of the area in which he lives and out of a desire to save it from urbanisation. He is an active campaigner on green issues and human rights and believes in the power of the written word to change the way people think about the earth as a complex, interconnected life support system. He is also a member of "Write by the Sea" a Folkestone based writing group that has recently published its debut work, "Ghosts by the Sea".
