1. This is green belt land. Within the Bradford district there are brownfield sites that are not due to be developed. These sites should be prioritised for development.
2. Loss of habitat. An established breeding pair of Barn Owls live in the Ash tree in the adjacent field and this site forms a corridor for their hunting and feeding.
3. School capacity. Addingham Primary School is at capacity and has had a demonstrable over-subscription with already village-dwelling children in the last 3 years.
4. Road safety. Both access points for this development are reached via Old Station Way which bears the weight of street parking as an overflow from Main Street and the adjacent terraced rows. This makes visibility and access difficult at the junction and within the first 50 metres.
