Access routes to this site are extremely suboptimal. While improvements to existing roads would be welcome they should not be widened as this would impact the character of the area. Access from School Lane would damage ecosystems and those of the adjacent designated local green space which would also suffer.
Access from Chapel Street would ruin the peaceful walk that exists at present, for both adults and children attending the primary school.
Although this is a PDL site, there are now highly diverse wildlife populations which Addingham Environment Group have detailed, especially butterflies, birds, bumblebees and bats, with even fish and otters seen in the beck.
This is a most inappropriate site for further development.
