Significant increase of flood risk - houses towards top of Moor Lane already affected by flooding caused by both field run-off/water courses along North/South of site (local houses already get water inside).
Drainage is old/narrow/insufficient at present - road and pavement sections along Moor Lane damaged annually by flooding.
Location 1 mile from amenities will increase traffic posing a safety risk (Moor Lane already very congested with parked cars). New development opposite this site has already had a significant impact on traffic on Moor Lane.
Green Belt land should not be developed and it’s loss will be detrimental to the village. Building on this site will extend the perimeter of the village into the neighbouring rural area which was not to be allowed.
This rural car free lane is used daily by hikers, dog walkers, children, the elderly as a safe area to exercise/enjoy f must be preserved.
