I would like to offer my support of the Pirton Neighbourhood Plan. In particular, p.23 of the document headed 'Community Feedback' is of particular importance as the findings of the survey conducted are generally summarised as showing the community having 'a preference for small developments over the lifetime of the plan, providing adequate infrastructure is in place'.

To quantify this the plan document states that 46% of the community want fewer than 10 dwellings to be built at any one time, and 24% between 10-25.

Given that the Cala Homes proposal does not consider, nor provide for adequate and improved village access and infrastructure during its development or beyond, I would vote for the addition of fewer than 10 dwellings at the Elm Tree Farm/ Holwell corner development.
