I am worried about the local plan due to the following.

The site is marked as green belt and has a lot of wildlife interest that I regularly see in my garden. This included Green woodpeckers and albino squirrels. A development of the proposed size will impact the local wildlife which are currently in a conservation area.

Deards end lane is already a busy road I have a 2 year old son and there is no path to walk along and the road is too narrow to walk down. We have had numerous close calls with the number of cars using the cut through and the bridge at the end of lane can not support additional traffic.

I can hear the A1 in my garden and the pollution and noise impact would be huge for any new development residents.

Currently my garden floods in the winter. With an increase in concrete my garden and the proposed site would have major issues with removal of water and drainage.

I appreciate the need to for extra housing but having lived in the proposed area I believe has not thought through the potential impact to the above.
