- There are 20 houses going in next to Bee-Orchid way already.
- Site does not fit in with the village. Rockland St Mary is a quaint small village which is one of its main appeals. To add a site of the proposed scale would take away from the beauty of our small community.
- The proposed site is outside of the village plan.
- The site of 200 + houses seems to go against "major developments of less than 30 dwellings per hectare should not be supported" because it would rise by possibly 465 houses.
- It has not been identified that there is a local need for more housing.
- A site of that size is completely out of character with the village.
- It would be able to be seen from Broad Area National Park.
- The roads leading to Rockland St Mary are already struggling to cope with the current traffic, to add many additional cars to the roads would be hugely detrimental.
- Any development on the proposed site would be life altering to the barn owls and local wildlife that live in that area.
- Added light pollution in a Dark Skies Area
