The density of housing proposed for this site is disproportionate to the road access. New dwellings on the periphery of the village are a long way from local services. New children to the area are unlikely to be accepted into the local school given their proximity to the school and the current capacity as a single class intake. If there were considerations to link Turner Lane to Silsden Rd this would create a potential rat run through a 20 mile an hour residential zone. The recreational fields below this land are often flooded most of the year and any developments uphill from valuable community recreational facilities will have a negative impact on flooding. This site currently provides green open space at the approach into the village with a nature reserve on the opposite side of Silsden Road and green land and allotments lining the access road into Addingham.
