Representation ID: 4362

Respondent: Mr Garry Bottomley

Representation Summary:

This site was rejected by the inquirey in 1996 because of the problems with access via Eliot St and stated a new access Rd had to be built first before the site could be developed . If this was the verdict reached then , surely the same conditions should apply today . Of the 2 access roads one is a single carridgeway farm track that cannot be widened .
Although not in the green belt it is part of the green corridore and plays a huge role in the sustainability of local wild life . From different types of deer and wild hedgerow birds to a local colony of bats and other wildlife the loss of this habitat would have huge effect on all local wildlife in the area .
The site also contains several ancient hedgrows which would be under threat if this site was to be used .
