I object to the proposed planing for GNLP0391 A AND B
The reasons for this is : Unsuitable roads. This is a rural area with single track roads, that are already struggling with too much traffic . A further increase in traffic would be unsafe for walkers cyclists and vehicle uses (frequent minor accidents occur ) these narrow lanes are lined with Ancient hedge rows and ancient trees including protected Oaks, Ash Elder, blackthorn and many other species. A High diversity of wildlife lives in this habitat , including birds on Amber and Red alert. I have personally observed Bull finches, yellow hammers skylarks, Lapwing, many different species of Raptors. Different variety of bats reside on both sites. These sites have high water tables and natural springs are in the immediate vicinity, the proposed site near the church has longstanding standing water, newts toads and frogs all inhabit the areas, as do grass snakes slow worms and adders, and wild flowers and have been observed. the proposal of homes near framingham Earl church is highly unsuitable, this church with its Norman Tower is a historic building it is a grade 1 listed. in its existing setting it has outstanding beauty, to build next to it would be completely wrong, and destroy its picturesque setting. To conclude we must preserve our heritage, unique wildlife on theses specific sites and protect road users from increased traffic.
