Representation Summary:

We are appealing to Bradford Council to reconsider plans for the developments here in our village.

The Main Street is as busy now as it was before the bypass was built. To add to this without any thought for access would be adding to the problem.

And worst of all is the disruption to wildlife in the area, the site of the Old First School is a haven for wildlife and has slowly been given back to the many creatures, butterflies, and birds which have taken residence on the site. Many of the birds from the Moorside depend on the trees, bushes and meadows here for food and shelter.

The village has spread over the years and the facilities have not kept up.

As one of the last small villages before hitting Ilkley and the towns and cities thereafter we will do all we can to keep this place from becoming an extension of that chain.
