In recent years, houses on the North side of Moor Lane and the west side of Turner Lane have experienced repeated flooding. The recently completed 18 houses opposite site AD6/H at the west end of Moor Lane have increased this problem, as the ditch and culvert designed to channel runoff from the impermeable surfaces of the development and new road access regularly overfills, causing flooding down Moor Lane. Building on site AD6 / H will also affect levels in the Beck which drains from this land, flooding gardens along the north side of Moor Lane.

A second concern is the increased amount of traffic 24 extra houses would generate as services and the local school, as you note are 1.4 km or further away from this location. recent and current housing developments on Moor lane have significantly increased traffic in the last 3 years.

The sites designated Green Belt.
