The water table would be effected, possibly leading to flooding of lower housing and land . The site has been very boggy recently. Building would also interfere with the public footpath.
As there is only one way into site, the extra traffic would be excessive on such a narrow road producing extra air pollution and disturbance. Bankfield road is already used as a short cut for speeding cars.164 new houses would generate more than that number of vehicles. There are no nearby bus services.
There are no shops/ amenities close to the site and so it is likely that residents would use their cars for most purposes of travel.
Obviously there would be adverse effects on the natural environment. Removal of trees could presumably also effect the water run off on the steep site.
The grade11 buildings would be adversely affected.
