Representation Summary:

Has following Concerns;

* Locating Gypsy and Traveller site on the Tachbrook Hill Farm land at Mallory Road would be detrimental to Bishops Tachbrook village.

* The school isn't big - only single form entry - and supporting a temporary population would mean school places might be taken up for the year and the children leave days / weeks later while local children cannot get a place. The local doctors is also very small with limited hours.

* The area is good agricultural land in a rural area.

I have concerns about the GT05 site as a possible location for a gypsy and traveller site. Locating it on the Tachbrook Hill Farm land at Mallory Road would be detrimental to Bishops Tachbrook village.

The school isn't big - only single form entry - and supporting a temporary population would mean school places might be taken up for the year and the children leave days / weeks later while local children cannot get a place. The local doctors is also very small with limited hours.

My concerns are also that the area is good agricultural land in a rural area.

I think the Brookside Willows site would be more suitable.
