Respondent: Barford, Sherbourne and Wasperton Joint Parish Council

Representation Summary:

In its totality this is an inappropriate intrusive incursion into the rural area that will blight approaches to our two major towns and Warwick Castle Park.

Full text:

The Joint Parish Council objects strongly to this proposal on various grounds - The housing numbers are excessive for this location and can only make the traffic issues which currently exist through our villages much worse given that a significant percentage of the new households will add to the traffic flow into Leamington/Warwick at peak times, despite proposed improved access to the M40.
Building the whole of the area will have a deleterious impact on Warwick Castle Park and the approach routes to both L/Spa and Warwick.
There will be unecessary loss of good agricultural land and important rural landscape.
The shape of the site "projects" inappropriately into the rural area and creates further future infil opportunities.
If this area is to be included at all it should be held back as long as possible and only utilised if the level of demand materialises.
