If the heritage and tree conservation issues could be mitigated then I do not object in principle to this proposal, with one big caveat being safe and suitable highway access. Loddon is well served by transport links which in principle add to this site's attractiveness, however the reality is that parked cars and volume of traffic currently using the adjacent High Street already make existing access difficult. It should be observed that the speed limit through Loddon is 20mph and this is as a desperate (and inadequate) attempt to mitigate unsuitably narrow pavements as they pass historic buildings.
