I agree there is a need for new housing, but building on this green belt site which has significant archaeological importance, wildlife and a loss of open space when entering a very historic village. I am concerned about the size of the development in the village, no health facilities, traffic, parking, road safety, schooling. Transport, bus services poor. The B656 gridlocked at rush hour then Cowards Lane used as a cut through. No pavements a single track lane.
