Gypsy and Traveller Site Options

Representation ID: 53980

Received: 28/07/2013

Respondent: CPRE WARWICKSHIRE

Representation Summary:

CPRE would oppose the use of any of the land shown in the identified area for search for GT20. The former construction works site was returned to farmland under the planning consent. It is not suitable as a gypsy site.
Gypsy pitches could be located within the land encircled by the A46 to the west, the M40 to the north and the gyratory system. The field left in the middle has limited agricultural value and has now no landscape value. The present GT20 area of search should be deleted but this smaller location included in the next stage of option appraisal.
