I object to the proposed development of 100 houses on this site due to the following reasons - Greenfield site within the greenbelt which should be preserved for future generations, the preservation of wild life and the wellbeing of local residents through recreation and observing nature which the area currently provides. The area frequently floods and is not easily accessible, traffic congestion is already an issue on the surrounding main roads the addition of at least 100 more cars would be an additional pressure on the local infrastructure and increase pollution levels. There are no local amenities and no frequent bus or train services which further increases the need to use a car adding to the congestion problems. Acacia Drive has also already recently been developed with an additional 24 dwellings so I feel the area has already contributed to providing addition housing needs and the greenbelt should remain undeveloped.
