I'm particularly concerned about the impact that the proposed 610 homes will have on village infrastructure.
I'd like to comment on the proposed site BU2/H - Scalebor House Field. This field is used for sledging It was perfect because there is a very substantial slope diagonally across the field, from Ron Lawton Crescent down to the railway end of the copse. This is a very unsuitable site for housing particularly for older age group people, many of whom will not be fit enough to scale the heights to the proposed access point without using motor vehicles. Wildlife frequents the field and use it as a wildlife corridor to the south of the railway.
