Access/egress via busy road network would not be safe.
Local facilities cannot be accessed on foot, bike or public transport thereby increasing reliance on car journeys which adds to pressure on highway infrastructure and is unsustainable.
Will lead to loss of farmland and rural employment making such sites isolated sites unviable.
Negative impact on Barford St. Peter's School which is already having to expand. Further influx will reduce places for local residents.
Disregards Rural Area Policies: RAPs 1 (New Housing), 6 (New Employment), 10 (Safeguarding Rural Roads) and 15 (Camping and caravan Sites).
Adverse visual impact and cannot successfully be integrated into the landscape.
Site does not allow for peaceful co-existence with community.
