Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

I object to site 1 being the preferred option as this will harm the historic nature of the village. I support development on sites 2 and 3 where sensitive landscaping/planting schemes can allow gradual extension of village boundaries without detrimental visual impact. Being to the east of Offchurch Lane, Lewis Road and School Lane, these sites would create less traffic congestion than either site 1 or site 4 where traffic volumes would increase at the existing junctions. In principle any development should be spread over more than one site to minimise the impact on any particular group of residents.
