Milton of Campsie Greenbelt Preservation

​

• Milton of Campsie Greenbelt Preservation group (MOCGP) was formed in 2014

​​

• Current Membership around 250 members

​​

• Our Chair is prominent local activist, Dr Morag Campbell.

​​

• Milton of Campsie is a community of less than 2,000 houses with a population of 3,890 (2018).  In recent years approximately 250 additional houses have been built at: Springfield (former Lilyburn Works), Baldoran, Fells View, James Boyle Square, Scott Avenue and the current Cala development at Finn Glen.

​

• The population density of Milton of Campsie is almost six times higher than the average for East Dunbartonshire and more than 50 times higher than the Scottish average.

​

• We don't want any more houses built on our greenbelt

​

• We want to protect the biodiversity and ecological value of our surrounding area, the green network and the community woodland.
