Development of 49 homes within this area would not be low density development as expected within rural and village communities.
The development of a higher density number of homes compared to the original proposals for this plot of land would have a significant impact so close to the conservation area of the Church and surrounding conservation area. A lower number of dwellings would reduce the impact to the village community, the conservation area and the view of the village from the south and up to the church. Space for the new homes will be limited within a development of this size and not in keeping with the village or the Council's original planning report, which included a community play area. Cramming more homes into a smaller plot of land would not be in keeping with the village or the sensitive positioning of this plot of land in relation to the Church and conservation area.
