There would be a significant detrimental impact on the local natural environment, being predominantly based on developing greenbelt and agricultural land around the fringes of the village and nature areas that provide habitat for local wildlife.

The number of houses are disproportional to the size of the village and will significantly increase the levels of traffic driving through the village. The small lanes around the proposed sites are inappropriate for the levels of traffic these developments would generate. It would also put at risk public safety.

Existing problems with flooding would be worsened.

These new houses would damage the villages reputation of a countryside community and would significantly downgrade the look of our village.

The developments would be detrimental to the natural views of hills and moorland that existing residents enjoy and would change the rural and natural setting of local paths and walking routes.

With only one school and Doctors that are already at maximum capacity, local facilities can not sustain more houses in Addingham.
