Swainsthorpe is considered suitable for only small scale "infill" development in existing local plans, this site is much larger. Whilst it has been listed as 25 units. The size of the site is clearly proposed to be more (around 50 on speaking with Ben Turner). The proposed access onto Church Road via Church View is onto a dangerous bend to a road already used as a "rat run" and opposite a children's play area. There is also alternative proposal through the other scheme proposed by owners Ben Burgess (to access from A140). This would split this from the village and cause more traffic issues (around roundabout) and open up possible further developments changing the rural character of the village forever.
