We moved to Willow Farm in Silfield , with the view that we would be within the Green Belt for the rest of our lives
this development clearly changes that totally , as our property would now be in an Urban enviroment. Not what we had planned.
The concept of the Garden Village sounds fine, however developers often use fine words and plans to get planning , however once planning is granted , many of the niceties and promised infrastructure disappear, as houses are crammed in to every square metre of land
We have great concerns that this will cause our property to loose a substantial part of its value.
I also have concerns regarding substantial increases in traffic, and the associated noise and pollution.
The entrance to our property is already somewhat dangerous , massive increases in traffic will exacerbate this.
There will be massive disruption should the go ahead be given whilst construction is underway
Should this plan get the go ahead we believe that use of heavy landscaping and tree belts should be used to minimise the impact on our and other properties in Silfield
