Alternative Sites Consultation

Representation ID: 44423

Received: 08/04/2010

Respondent: Ann & Michael Hill

Representation Summary:

Development of Loes Farm would destroy the beautiful approach to the town and the agricultural land. It is a matter of conjecture whether the infrastructure would be able to sustain development. Area has suffered in the past due to development of Woodloes and the A46. Any further traffic would be absolute madness. Covenants restrict development of land. Loss of rare ridge and furrow landscape. Water run off from site would be enormous. Historic woodlands would be vandalised. Loss of jobs at Hinton's Nursery. Suggest development of Guys Cliffe farm as an alternative.
