Objection to the number of proposed dwellings, this will be a huge estate and again is eating into Thornton's green space. If a lesser number were proposed I would not object.
Any buildings need to be in keeping with the rural agricultural aspect of the village, traditional materials, not artificial stone.
This build would greatly increase the volume of traffic on Thornton Road in both directions, this area is currently used a race track by lawless drivers. this would raise pollution levels.
Why has outline been passed for 250 houses prior to this consultation?
No facilities in this area, retail or otherwise which means inhabitants would need to use private transport for most likely short journeys.
If the full allocation of houses is given the go ahead, Thornton will no longer be a village but a small town!
current infrastructure in the village cannot provide for 600 plus extra houses
