It is hoped common sense will prevail and development of this well used land will not take place.
- The greenbelt between Lillington and Cubbington must be protected to prevent the unrestricted urban sprawl of the large built up area of Leamington Spa, it safeguards the countryside from encroachment and maintains the two distinct communities of Lillington and Cubbington village. If not protect, village life as we know it will be gone forever.
- Pressure will inevitably arise to extend the development to the clearly defined boundary of Welsh Road and into the greenbelt around the Thwaites Factory.
- The impervious heavy clay subsoil causes the site to be prone to flooding. Building on this land would worsen the existing village flooding problem.
- The proposed site access could be from Offchurch Road between Hill Farm and the public footpath entrance and through the cul-de-sacs off Parklands Avenue. Offchurch Road, Rugby Road, Windmill Hill and the roundabout at the top of the hill (where many accidents occur) will be effected and are not suitable to support the significant increase in traffic from thousands more houses travelling to and from the village at rush hour morning and evening will cause a great deal of disruption to all Cubbington residents.
- Such a large scale settlement would cause a great deal of pressure on local schools and doctors etc.
- Imagine the environmental impact on the wildlife of these old fields and the loss of the well used footpaths!
