This development would impact upon the rural nature and entrance to Bishops Tachbrook village detrimentally impacting upon the current landscape.
There is no pathway from this site to the village and due to the narrow nature of Mallory road and hazardous Banbury Road this would be impossible to provide. Users of the site would be forced to use cars and access to the bus stop would be dangerous on foot.
Proposed access from the Banbury Road would be on the brow of a hill and dangerously close to a very busy motorway junction. Vehicles towing trailers or caravans into the site would present a risk to themselves and other road users.
The farmer is unwilling to sell the land and compulsory purchase would be the only option.
Mallory Road and parts of this field flood on a regular basis.
