Respondent: Alan Woodhead

Representation Summary:

Loss of views.

Impact on beautiful Prince of Wales Park and surrounding countryside.

The wildlife should be left undisturbed, these areas, are a haven for deer, bats, badgers etc.

Green Belt in the past was always looked on as being "untouchable".
There must be many brownfield sites that could be used to preserve this countryside.
issue of access on Heights Lane which is not conductive to an increase in traffic flow. The roads date back hundreds of years and not designed for the volume of modern traffic, which the proposed development would increase.
The mini roundabout is always busy and additional traffic could have and adverse effect here.
Inadequate facilities, in particular the First School.

The land is a prime building plot and the houses, which would be built, would fetch a premium price. Should put conservation above financial gain.
Surely an alternative more suitable site could be found.
