The local schools are already full, as are the doctors surgeries.
The development of 100 houses would mean increase in at least 150 cars driving in the area.
There are no shops in the village, so residents would have to drive to go shopping in Allerton or Cottingley, increasing the congestion on the road through the village, which is too narrow & is gridlocked 3 times a day as it is, at school times & with commuter traffic, with long queues, as it's become part of the ring road.
The fields are used by the riding school for grazing & riding lessons. In September the grass is harvested providing food for the horses in Winter. There are nesting birds, frogs, bats, insects, hedgehogs & more wildlife habitats that would be destroyed.
