Site would have visual impact from A4177 and the canal. Detracting from the visual beauty (natural and man made eg Hatton Locks will impact on tourism.
Would cause noise and disturbance to nearby residents.
Would create additional traffic on an already busy road, adding to pollution, air quality, noise and congestion.
Proximity of road and garage would be dangerous for travellers/gypsies living on site and offers poor living conditions eg noise, pollution. Proximity of canal would also be a hazard to children.
Green belt land should not be developed.
Site would harm local fauna and flora and endanger some species.
Would increase the strain on local schools, doctors and shops.
Number of gypsies/travellers would outnumber the existing local residents.
