This is a particularly sensitive site given its proximity to the church, an SSI and the River Tas. Any development would further extend the village envelop and the publicly accessible views of the Tas valley (accessible to all by footpath from the centre of the village).Although this is a small development proposal, it would have a significant adverse impact on the unique character of Stoke Holy Cross. The potential social benefits of additional housing are small in relation to the adverse impact on the landscape and the river environment.
