Representation Summary:

Access would be difficult, especially when considering the main road through Rockland itself is narrow. The size of the development seems excessive for the village. The biodiversity on the proposed field includes an impressive range of wild orchids which would be lost. Also any run off from a building site would run down the field towards the Rockland & Hellington Nature Reserve. Much is made of the linear shape of the village and this development would be in keeping, however it will impact enormously for houses which border the site and alter the character significantly.

Change suggested by respondent:

To reduce the number of houses, or reconsider completely.
