Full text:

As a resident of Ashwell, I am writing to you to object to the settlement boundary extension in Ashwell to include the Claybush Rd (site AS1) for 33 houses. for the following reasons:

Site AS1 fails to meet the requirements for highway safety to protect pedestrians and other road users as defined in both the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and NHDC's own current and emerging planing policy for Highway Safety. (Policy T1)

Site AS1 fails to meet the requirements to protect valued landscapes. The site in within the North Baldock Chalk Uplands Character Area and development is restricted under National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and NHDC's own local planning policy, both current and emerging.

Site AS1 fails to meet the requirements to protect the historic environment. The site is within the setting of the scheduled ancient monument Arbury Banks and is protected by NPPF and NHDC policy. (SP13, para 4.151)

NHDC has failed to consult on the proposals to extend the settlement boundary in locations other than AS1 (within which there would be a presumption in favour of development; Policy SP2)

I look forward to hearing the outcome.
