Representation Summary:

As neighbouring landowners, we are very concerned about this for a number of reasons: environmentally, we are in a conservation areas with protected trees. There is much wildlife locally including owls, bats and deer. It is the only green space in the centre of the village for wildlife and forms part of the skyline of the area due to the elevated position. There are problems with access given narrow roads to both sides at Rectory Road and Station Road. Traffic and road safety is already a problem given the volume of amenities traffic with addition tourist traffic.

As neighbouring landowners, we are very concerned about this for a number of reasons: environmentally, we are in a conservation areas with protected trees. There is much wildlife locally including owls, bats and deer. It is the only green space in the centre of the village for wildlife and forms part of the skyline of the area due to the elevated position. There are also problems with access given narrow roads to both sides at Rectory Road and Station Road. Traffic and road safety is already a problem given the volume of amenities traffic with addition tourist traffic during the spring and summer. RE: services, the school and surgery are already full, and there are problems with parking in the village, In addition the sewerage and drains are very old and would struggle to cope. We are really concerned that the character of the village would be threatened with the scale of the development in such an important and central location.
