Representation ID: 15215

Received: 21/03/2018

Respondent: Mr Simon Kempson

Representation Summary:

The proposed development of more houses around Foundry Close is constrained by very poor access onto Stringers Lane and Aubrey Ricks Close from Foundry Close. This single track road is already dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists and the addition of more houses will only increase the likelihood a serious accident. The alternate route via Twyford Lane has the same issues.
In addition, Barn Owls can be seen regularly hunting on the proposed land; this would be lost, along with a loss of privacy and devaluation of properties adjacent to the proposed developments.
