Number of houses is too high to be accommodated without substantially compromising policies within local plan on sustainability and environmental protection.
1. Limited open land that can be developed without harming the village landscape setting, character & biodiversity value of green & blue infrastructure corridors.
2. All open countryside to south is within 2.5km habitat protect zone, with remainder in 2.5km of North Pennine Moors SPA/SCA
3 Excessive development will lead to wildlife disturbance
4. Increase in road traffic - affecting air quality, and will affect the need for safe, sustainable, environmentally friendly alternative forms of transport within the village.
