The proposed site is the only communal open green space in an already densely developed area and is currently used for recreation by the community and has for a long time. There are families with children who have no access to gardens who rely that space as a safe place for them to play. The surrounding roads are already heavily congested and adding more housing in such a small area will not only add to the problem but will contribute negatively to air pollution. Important views to WHS Salts mill will be lost to the local community and the existing properties will suffer from loss of light, being overlooked, and loss of privacy. Given the scale of the proposed development, a new green space within the site would be insufficient given the space we benefit from now, and that should not be taken away from an already deprived area.
