I strongly object to the proposed development for the following reasons:
 It will destroy one of the most beautiful views of the Tas Valley (of which there are already precious few) - loved by locals and visitors alike for countless years. Why should this be stolen from the village for the benefit of the few who can afford it?
 This development will add further traffic to an already busy and increasingly congested area.
 The proposed site is outside the current Settlement Boundary.
 Flooding in this area is increasingly likely.
 Will not address the issue of truly affordable housing for those who were born or grew up in this area.
