-Consideration has not been given to wider impacts of this potential development.
-Houses should not be built on this site.
-The site plays a pivotal role in our districts and the world’s literary and cultural history.
-Developing on this site makes no economic or cultural sense.
-Proximity to the Bronte Stones walk.
-Detrimental impact on the views (of moorlands and Pinch Beck Valley) that people travel from all over the world to see / made famous by the Bronte sisters and by consequence negatively impact on the cultural economy of our district.
-Bradford’s economic recovery centres culture - proposals to build on this site clearly go against this plan.
-We should be protecting greenfield spaces especially when they hold such significant cultural and social value as this one.
-Part of this site is protected village greenspace in the RUDP.
-There are clearly no exceptional circumstances to build on this site.
-Consider alternative brownfield sites.
