Representation Summary:

The above statement recognises the prominent location on approach to the village and also the landscape and visual impacts associated with development of this site.
This development will not maintain the essentially unsettled character with rural dispersed farms.
It will not respect the site and setting of landmark features such as the churches in views.
It will be very visible at the edge of the village and within the landscape
It will extend the built form of the village boundary.
Soft landscaping and layout and design will not replace the open rural views that are at threat of being lost.

Change suggested by respondent:

A smaller scale development would be more appropriate in a less prominent position in the landscape.
