Increased traffic up Moor Lane - pollution, safety, children playing out, inappropriate to rural environment. Destruction of tree lined access road. Destruction of rural nature of Turner Lane. All traffic will have to use Moor Lane. Old field drains will be interupted exacerbating the flooding / run off issues that exist already on turner Lane. This field should be kept as a buffer between the village and the bypass. The houses will not be affordable for local workers, only retirees and commuters. We don't need more retirees in Addingham, and commuting should not be encouraged at all. building in areas like this destroys the very virtue you are trying to promote i.e. a 'highly attractive village with historic character and a special setting in the landscape'. Building more houses cannot 'conserve and enhance' this. Building should take place on brown filed sites near sites of employment.
