• Destruction of the local biodiversity, habitats, meadow, hedgerow, trees and natural flora and the wildlife within.
• Loss of agricultural land
• Loss of natural views for adjacent residents.
• Loss of an amenity which allows community engagement with countryside
• The elimination of green space can only bring endless urban sprawl.
• Local schools are already at capacity leading to greater journeys
• A planning application was made a couple of years ago which was rejected
• Nab Wood is already busy with traffic and further capacity is questionable
• The roads are steep and prone to collisions.
• Further drop in air quality due to need for car use
• No buses so reliance on cars
• No local services eg shops, GP etc so increased number of car journeys
• This proposal goes against national policy on greenbelt
• Accelerated rain run-off into areas downhill
