Respondent: Mrs Betty Hiorns

Representation Summary:

Cubbington has suffered from flooding in the past and building on this land would worsen the problem. The land is green belt and safeguards the two distinct communities of Cubbington and Lillington. Village life as we know it would be gone forever as it would be a sprawl of a large built up area. It would cause a great deal of pressure on local services such as schools and doctors. There would be significant increase in traffic in the rush hours. There would be environmental impact on wildlife of these old fields and the loss of the well used footpaths

Cubbington has suffered from flooding in the past and building on this land would worsen the problem. The land is green belt and safeguards the two distinct communities of Cubbington and Lillington. Village life as we know it would be gone forever as it would be a sprawl of a large built up area. It would cause a great deal of pressure on local services such as schools and doctors. There would be significant increase in traffic in the rush hours and cause disruption to all Cubbington residents. There would be environmental impact on the wildlife of these old fields and the loss of the well used footpaths
