On the plus side, the village will still have the valley to the south of the main road. The fields between Thornton Hall and Ashfield House area are a setting for St James Church and the ancient Bell Chapel, also part of The Bronte Way - a key visitor attraction. The main objection by locals is 500 houses are too many - double most of the villages. The sensitive eco-system, which is within 7km of the protected moors, will be unbalanced and flora and fauna destroyed. Thornton Valley should be a 'green corridor' because of its unique position. Reduce number.
