Representation Summary:

outside village boundary. The essential widening of church road is not possible due to adjoining private gardens. The village is too small for this amount of houses, narrow roads, no amenities and no capacity in the school. The building would destroy homes of protected wildlife. The field regularly floods, doesn’t have sufficient drainage. The new development would ruin the outlook for adjacent homes, increased traffic would endanger lives as families walk to school through the village on roads with no paths. There is a public right of way across the field.

Change suggested by respondent:

Area not suitable for building. Paths would be needed through whole village. Impossible to widen road to allow for more traffic as required to accommodate more traffic. School would need more places. Wildlife needs protection. Flooding needs assessing as land regularly floods in wet weather. Work would need to allow for public right of way right across the field.
