Full text:

I object to this site being identified for future development for the following reasons:
1. Location of access point from Church Street is dangerous. This very narrow stretch of road is already dangerous for drivers, cyclist and pedestrians and increased turning traffic will make it worse. There is also a blind bend close by which will lead to accidents from traffic pulling out onto Church street. The path is very narrow and development will further endanger pedestrians.
2. The land currently supports a large and diverse ecosystem. There is a thriving owl and bat population on this land which would be destroyed if development were to proceed.
3. This land would be ideal as a community woodland/green space.
