Though Bishops Tachbrook has a GP surgery it is only a part-time one. The school is a single form entry. This area is known to flood regularly.
The Banbury Road is extremely busy, with an increasingly high volume of commuter traffic. There have been several serious accidents at the junction with Mallory Road, and it is incredibly dangerous at times, to turn right from the Mallory Rd towards Warwick.
There would be a high noise from this busy road, and from the very busy M40 which is only a short distance away.
A Traveller site here could not be incorporated into the landscape without harming the character of the area. Tachbrook Hill Farm is a listed property and the fields immediately around it are crucial to the atmosphere and charm of the Farm.
