I object to development North of the A46.

Whilst I believe that the area of Loes Farm adjacent to the existing Woodloes Park development is likely to be developed in the long term, I view the expansion of development to the North of the A46 as setting a significant precedent. Not only will access to this area North of the A46 be very difficult and potentially hazardous, the provision of access roads is likely to reduce the area of land available for housing to the extent where that development is not economically viable. As an additional point, the Gaveston Wood is currently occupied by a range of protected wildlife including badgers and buzzards which would be adversely affected by development.
