I strongly object as

1 The proposed site is outside the village boundary

2 It is completely out of character with the existing village profile. The village is linear in nature with the exception of the development already prepared for Bee-Orchid Way

3 The transport infrastructure cannot accommodate further traffic of this magnitude

4 Inadequate utilities infrastructure for this development

5 The site is not suitable as would impact on the character of the village, would involve loss of countryside and would impact on the natural environment

6 Access routes for safety reasons would have inadequate visibility due to the brow of a hill and bend in the road. Visibility particular important as this stretch of road is part of a cycle network and heavily used by cyclists

7 The site would interfere with the pr-existing footpath across the field

8 Rockland St Mary is a service village and therefore this site is totally inadequate due to its size

9 Site would result in overlooking issues for many existing homes, which would result in loss of privacy and being located in a rural location

10 Elevated location detrimental to the skyline
