Note that site is on southbound carriageway and not northbound as stated in table 10.1

No convenient access to GP surgeries, schools or public transport. Nearest facilities are over 1 km away. No safe pedestrian/cycle links or public transport to Warwick and car journey would be over 3.5 kms.

Noise and potential health/pollution issues from adjacent A46. Also proximity to busy main road is a risk to children from the development and so contrary to national design guidance for such sites.

Site would be isolated development and would harm the character of the area.

Distance from Warwick will not help promote the peaceful and integrated co-existence with the local community.

In open countryside beyond settlement boundaries.

Unsustainable given distance from local facilities and so will not reduce the need to travel.

Site may impact in service station and have a negative economic impact.

In accordance with national design policy if site not appropriate for residential development it should not be considered for gypsy and traveller use.

Sustainability Appraisal of Local Plan identified 3 major and 3 minor negative scores for the site.

More suitable sites should be taken forward and allocated.
