Representation ID: 2816

Received: 06/03/2023

Respondent: Mrs Caroline Hancock

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Roads and Traffic – narrow roads, no passing places, speeding in village, lack of footpaths and street lighting, limited public transport, no bike paths. Increased traffic could be dangerous to residents and add to noise and air pollution.
Facilities and Infrastructure – no shops, GP, or dentist. Existing sewerage already struggling, more houses will make the situation worse. School already oversubscribed.
Bridge – is a scheduled monument – extra traffic may have a detrimental structural effect.
Flooding – adding houses onto farmland will increase the risk of surface water flooding.

Change suggested by respondent:

I would prefer if the development did not go ahead due to the issues which I have already stated in my objection.

If the development was approved,I would like the number of houses to be reduced as I think that the house density is too great for the land size.
Also for the houses to be of the same standard and sympathetic design as the recent 2 small developments.
