This development will be a blight on the landscape. Having a significant impact on the look and feel of a location (the old bridge and adjacent riverside gardens) that is used by thousands of visitors to Ilkley and residents alike. It a place where people stroll, walk their dog, eat an ice cream, and generally feel good about this open green space and the natural beauty of Ilkley. This development will significantly detract from the beauty of this location for the sake of a few additional houses. I find it difficult to believe that the town council would allow development at this location and destroy the ambience for visitors to this beauty spot. As a regular user of this location for my own recreation I strongly object to this development.
