I was interested in JR Gilding's post-pub ramblings around Falmer in July (Letters, September 29).

He refers to photographs I haven't seen but an aerial photograph does not give any idea of how a scene will look to somebody on the ground.

The view from the A27 is what most people will see and references to Falmer pond are superfluous. Nothing will change there as the stadium will be on the other side of the B2123.

He also seems unaware some of the university buildings will be demolished and the stadium will be sunk into the ground, so there will be far more effort to blend into the surroundings than was displayed when the Sussex University campus was built and extended.

He then rambles on about additional buildings and security fencing, which are all figments of his imagination. Perhaps he shouldn't drink so much at lunchtimes.
