I object to this developement because with every new house constructed it erodes further the village identity. Size matters. The village community feeling and well being
will cease if the population becomes too large. To say nothing of the inferstructure not being able to cope. The school is overcrowded with insuficient places for all the
village children now. It cant possibly cope with 500 [conservative est.] more children, or more cars dropping them off in the already busy highstreet. If the Doctors surgery
can cope with the number of new patients, which I doubt,trying to book an early appointment is impossible,whilst trying to park there is also fraught with frustration. The cars stretch from the surgery carpark down the highstreet into the recreation ground carpark or that of theExhibition inn. To be able to cope both these institutions would need to expand which would further damage the village identity. Finally,33 years ago I chose to live in a country village for its community spirit, isolation, tranquility and uninterupted views of the fields and wildlife on greenbelt land that I believed to be safe from developement. No longer!. Surely, now you can build almost anywhere it would be more sensible to build where it affects no one but creates a new community with its own identity and spirit. I would be gratefull if you could inform me of the best
way to prevent this or any subsequent developements. Terry Stubbs.
