The elevated topography of the site would result in buildings of a scale inappropriate to a rural setting. Access on to the highway ( particularly Pits Lane) would be unsafe and such a development would result in unacceptable levels of additional traffic. The site also sits partly in a Conservation Area which should remain undeveloped as a natural ground ( more suitable to its current use as a small holding or similar)
There are other sites in Loddon which are far more suitable for housing, which could fulfil the required apparent local need and which sit closer to service centres.
