Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 3556

Received: 22/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Sabine Robinson

Representation Summary:

This site is the furthest away from the village and isolated. This makes it unlikely or impossible for residents to walk into the village. This will mean an increase in cars travelling through the surrounding narrow roads and through the village as it cannot be assumed that the bypass will be used. This will cause an increase in pollution.
The proposed site creates an important open space on the western side of Addingham. In longer distance views, particularly from popular and important beauty spots such as Beamsley Beacon or Haw Pike, it helps to seperate the village from the bypass. Building on this part of greenbelt land will have an adverse impact on the traditional and rural character of Addingham as a village not just for the residents but also for the many visitors and tourists to the area.
