I object strongly to this development in an existing Green Belt zone and potential impact on the Green Belt which also includes trees with TPO orders. The site is an area of meadow and a huge percentage of meadows have been lost nationally. It would impact significantly on the aesthetics and openness of the countryside of the GillBeck valley which is a valued area of natural beauty enjoyed by many for walking, and general recreation. Bradford Council has stated aims to prioritise biodiversity, environmental stewardship and promote health and well being and this development would impinge on all of these. In additional building 40 house on this site would add considerably to the traffic on Langley Lane and impact on the local adjacent school (incidentally already over prescribed). A sprawl of 40 house would undoubtedly irrevocably spoil this area of Baildon which has over the years had considerable residential development.
