There are many reasons we object to this site.
Firstly we have just built a log cabin in our back garden for my holistic therapy business. The reason we chose to build this in our garden and one of the attractions of the business is that it is set in a peaceful countryside village. The meadow behind gives the feeling that you are in the middle of no where. When the construction starts the noise that will come from this will have a significant affect on my business that is designed for relaxation purposes.
Secondly no other part of the village has this many houses over looking into their back garden. We have a child as do our neighbours and we chose to live where we do so they can play freely in the garden without being over looked. If we wanted to live on an estate we would live on one.
Plus having houses at the back of our property will have a impact on the value of our house if we choose to move.
If the houses were to move to the back of the field where the free space is shown on the plans of the meadow we perhaps would not object to this as they would not impact us so much.
