This section of Moor Lane is part of the Dales High Way, and provides wonderful views to Beamsley Beacon over the green fields that lie on
the edge of Addingham, and retains the countryside setting for the village. We understand that rare protected birds are seen in these fields.
If this development is allowed there is no real reason to prevent further development beyond it stretching to Skipton Road. Moor
Lane currently provides a strong boundary to the Green Belt and moving the boundary to an ordinary field boundary will create a much less permanent boundary. This will lead to the destruction of more Green Belt in the future.
Any development here, more than 1 mile from the surgery, school and convenience store, will mean many more cars being used which is unsustainable. Flooding at the top of Moor Lane is already bad, this will make it even worse.
