Representation Summary:

Application forms for the 2 developments are confused - GNLP2002 / GNLPSL0010.
Small scale development on smaller site probably not out of character for the area.
Larger scale development to the rear of No 6 is out of character and unsustainable.

We along with other local residents have seen over the years and been the beneficiaries of, several individual infill type properties on The Heath, which fit the character of the area. These have had very little impact on the quality of life on The Heath and therefore we would not have any objections to a small development ie; a pair of semi-detached properties, being built on the smaller site adjacent to The Heath road as an infill to compliment the neighbouring properties (GNLPSL0010).

However, the proposal for in excess of 15 properties (GNLP2002) which will include the above smaller site, would be out of character with The Heath. It will increase the stress on the local infrastructure, it can only be accessed by single track roads and all facilities ie; buses, shops, doctors, public houses are over 2 miles away, which can only lead to far more traffic on an already busy country lane so not suitable for development.
