1) This is public land allocated for the benefit of the people of Addingham and should not be sold for private development. 2) The site is a mile and 200ft. uphill from the village centre. No one is going to walk or cycle to use village amenities. The site will generate an unacceptable level of additional traffic. In the context of the climate emergency, generating additional car journeys undermines global sustainability. 3) Addingham village centre needs regeneration, with people walking to shop and use other amenities. It does not need up to another 160 cars driving through Main Street on their way to Ilkley and other centres. 4) With AD1/H, AD6/H and ADF7/H and the new houses in Moor View, Moor Croft and the Timber Yard it constitutes a large estate of houses – this conflicts with the adopted Neighbourhood Plan policy of small scale developments.
