Full text:

This proposed building site is on a very narrow rural lane, totally unsuitable for construction traffic and increased domestic traffic and access.
A development as proposed would impact the village adversely, the site is adjacent to the grade 1 listed St Mary's church and graveyard, and would impact on the views across the valley and the river Tas, it would change the very heart of the village centre and the wider village environment.There is no provision for services and drainage in the locality, and infrastructure for schools, parking, footpath access etc is poor.
The proposed building would change the character of this very rural village. Additional traffic flow through the village is also considered to be inappropriate for the existing road structure.
