Insufficient village amenities and services.
Unsuitable drainage system.
Village roads too narrow and already overloaded.
Environmental risk to conservation areas in village.
I object to the proposed site for several reasons. In general, the village is not equipped to cope with development due to limited services and amenities, i.e. - no mains drainage, no gas, no school, no shop, infrequent/unreliable bus service, narrow and already overloaded roads. Specifically, development on the proposed site will have a significantly detrimental impact on an already challenged drainage system in that area, especially as the site is on rising ground. And more broadly, the site is surrounded by conservation areas, according to the 'Adopted' plan, plus The Common - an SSSI. Any new development will risk the delicate environment and not be in keeping with the current aesthetics of the village.
