I support the calming of traffic speeds through the village, although noise from a new roundabout may be excessive due to slowing down and acceleration of vehicles at the site. There also appears to be no allocation in the plans for siting of a roundabout, which would impinge on the development area, the existing layby and the curtilage of Brooke Lodge, and also interrupting an existing field drain that crosses the road at the northern boundary. Additionally, electricity pylons would need to be moved to accommodate a roundabout.

The B1332 has a large amount of lorries plus private cars using it who all speed through the village. Adding more housing plus cars and delivery vans ( ie Amazon etc) will only increase the amount of traffic the village has to contend with. Vehicles also start speeding up as they come from the south once past the community centre. There should also be provisions for a cycle lane
Limit the amount of housing and provide better ways of calming the large amount of traffic using the road using cameras and state how it will provide safe passage for cyclists and pedestrians.

There will be negative impacts with extra traffic noise and pollution, and commuters who suffer from using the B1332 already as this can hardly cope with traffic flows now.
Any building should continue the existing parallel linear small-scale development rather than cramming the site with dwellings.
