This is onto the flood risk area and will make the problem in the Levishaw Close area worse by affecting the drainage and absorbtion of the land on the south slope to the Brook. Also access will be difficult without agffecting surrounding settled cul de sacs.

A sloping field down to the brook. Building on this would hugely increase the already high risk of flooding along the brook, as it has in the past. Building here would irrevocably alter the rural feel of the entire village of Buxton, the single track roads in either direction unable to support a development of this size -as would the Norwich road with very poor single track and reduced vision in either direction. Buxton school is already over-subscribed and cannot accommodate more.

The submission for this site states that the land has no significant change of levels. In fact it is on a significant slope and any developement will result in drainage water running off into an already saturated flood plain below and houses overlooking those at a lower level. Back Lane is single track with extremely poor visibilty at either end. The developement of 4 houses in Bulwer Road in the '90s are not allowed vechicle access to it but the proposal is for 100 houses or possibly 200 vehicles. Footpath 9 adjoins the site contrary to submission.

Increased risk of serious flooding affecting many Buxton properties along stream.
Poor accessibility on single track road with blind bends.
School already failing to take all Buxton children.
There will be an increased risk of serious flooding from rapid run-off from the Back Lane site if it's all hard surface on a sloping site. The shallow stream won't be able to cope and this will affect all properties along the stream level including ours and many houses in of Levishaw Close. Also there's the problem of increased traffic on a single lane road - which cannot be widened at the Coltishall Road end - amounting to 100s of additional journeys per day down a road with poor sight lines. And Buxton school is already failing to accommodate all children living in Buxton.

I strongly object to the proposed development of back lane Buxton, this is not suitable for building as it will increase risk of flooding and ruin this lovely area of Buxton.
Yours Sincerely

1. Buxton School is already full and parents are already being turned away living in the village.
2. GP services are in neighbouring villages and under extreme pressure.
3. This land serves as a drain for those living in Levishaw Close, if you build on it, their land will flood. This happens currently without additional buildings.
4. Building this many homes will add to traffic in our rural village.
5. This site is outside the village boundary.
6. rural communities value green space.

I feel that this proposal would cause increased flooding problems for the residents of Levishaw Close. The infrastructure of the village could not support such a large development- the roads are narrow and the school is already oversubscribed. This proposal would destroy forever a picturesque area of Buxton which is rich in wildlife.

I strongly object to the proposed development on Back Lane. We live on Bulwer road and are already classified as living in an area at high risk of flooding. Building on this site would not help our situation and would indeed increase the likely hood of such an event occurring. Added to that the need to keep green spaces is so important for our wildlife and our community as a whole. Back Lane should indeed be considered to have 'Quiet Lane' status for it serves the community by providing a beautiful walk with sights of fields, meadow and woodland.

The flooding risk from extra hard services here would be ridiculous, some Levishaw Close front gardens are already floating every time there's heavy rain. The effects would be felt in the surrounding area and down the beck. Back Lane can in no way cope with the increase in traffic, or being widened. Same problem of no school places, no purpose built pre-school, no surgery - who is going to buy these houses? Loss of light to the old houses on Back Lane to as you would be building on a hill.

The land around this area including houses is already prone to flooding which would be worsened by more development causing more run off. There is not enough infrastructure in place to support such a development with poor roads, local school already at capacity and Dr's surgeries and dentists already under pressure.

The the road / access could not accommodate an additional 100-200+ cars.
The village school is currently full to capacity so where are these new residents going to send their children to school?
As a home owner who overlooks that field I'm also concerned that this would completely block my light as a development of this size would have to come right up to the field boundary in front of my house.
The drainage is appalling on the lane and is prone to flooding which would require additional costs.
110 houses in one field is not in keeping with village.

I feel that this proposal would cause increased flooding problems for the residents of Levishaw Close where I live. The infrastructure of the village could not support such a large development- the roads are narrow and the school that my children attend is already heavily oversubscribed. The roads would be far busier and dangerous for locals. This proposal would destroy forever a unique area of Buxton which is rich in wildlife.

If this is Glebe land I am sure the Diocese will sell.
1) Land off Mead Close [Buxton - adopted local plan allocation BUX1] - Owner (Mr Waller) is ill but wants to sell the option to a developer. £1500000 is too much and is not raising interest.
2) GNLP0297 - Mr Granes [?] owns the land - he offered it for building about 9 years ago. He took umbrage because he was not shown the plans before the Parish council. He hasn't relented. Mark Little from Savills will have a job to change Mr Crane's mind.
3) GNLP0601. Ideal - near road, amenities, etc.
4) GNLP0387. If this is Glebe land I am sure the Diocese will sell.
5) GNLP0294 - Ideal again - but the Heritage of Coltishall want so much to be kept for historical reasons. Will cost much to redevelop old buildings - shortage of brickies, carpenters and bricks.
