Further development in any of the villages along the A146 will cause the road to become even more congested. It is hard enough to cross the A146 traffic at many times of the day as it is.
One of the attractions of Bergh Apton is its dispersed nature, interspersing houses with agricultural land & woods.
Infill is not necessarily a good thing - except where there are buildings similar in character already.
This site is absolutely not one of them.
The proposed location is a wild wooded corner abutting the ancient and much used Church. For the proposer to say it is NOT USED implies that only developed land is "used". To develop this location is an affront to the whole village - its present "use" adds to the attractive character of the village probably more than any other.
The road junction is already difficult without a further flow of traffic that might even create the need for a roundabout. It is also on a blind slope, often impassable in icy conditions, at a point where pedestrian church users would become more vulnerable.
Furthermore there is NO other development in the vicinity with which new 'contemporary' housing might be complementary.
This proposal should be rejected immediately and permanently.
