Generation of more traffic on busy and hazardous high risk route. Dangerous entering and leaving site in fast moving traffic.

No mains sewerage, drainage or gas. Electricity supply may need upgrading.Poor mobile phone coverage.
Blight on views from Chesterton Windmill.
Size of site cannot be intregrated into landscape without harming visual aspect and character.
No dialogue/discourse with affected parties to promote peaceful integration.
Have travellers been consulted as to the requirements of their lifestyle? If they work from home, what will that be? What view will planning make of this? Is it to be industrial use?
Appears to be fair accompli. Causes uncertainty for local inhabitants and travellers alike.
