GT05 Land at Tachbrook Hill Farm, Banbury Road (WDC Alternative Site) is totally unsuitable for a development of this sort. Here are our reasons as to why
Close to M40 and A452 with accompanying noise pollution and access issues.
Already difficulty to exit village on A52 safely
Flooding issues on Mallory Road
Proximity to Village Incompatible with wanting to live apart from settled community.
Small village facilities-part time surgery, single form entry primary school
Visual impact on area I believe will be negative and bring into question the need for Blight notices to be served
The school cannot facilitate the children and any special needs due to it being small and one form per year
Im concerned about noise generated from site
Main road into village already dangerous without this community racing horses and carts down it as they did recently on the A46
In 1992 all BT residents were compensated for noise pollution due to siting of M40 - where is the compensation for this.
GT05 is closer to M40 than BT village. By the precedent set for compensation this
makes the site unsuitable for Caravans due to noise. A452 is a main arterial route to
M40(s) and to Gaydon Site from Leamington /Warwick making this an extremely
Too busy a road especially during morning and evening rush hour to be worsened by 10000 homes being built
Totally unsuitable to use good grade agricultural land. Will have developmental impact on the
approach to the village.
Exit onto the lane and or main road will be dangerous. Too close proximity to houses.
Too much of a vast open space
Compulsory purchase is unfair in order for the G&T community to operate the site as
a business.
No mains set up
No footpath to school/ docs etc.
Not suitable for business use and detriment to local businesses.
I run a business from the village and im afraid the stigma of such a site could affect my own business that sells to families.
I also run Warwickshire Hedgehog Rescue and we have released countless of these endangered animals into this location, and subsequent poor rubbish disposal as already demonstrated by these people elsewhere locally will harm wildlife.
School and Local GP surgery already oversubscribed
Only 10 minute walk from Oakley Wood (via wide verge) and opposite guide dogs
breeding centre, so not a good idea
Accident blackspot
Reputation damage to our primary school
The access from the farmers drive there is a blind spot at the brow of the hill so very
dangerous for pulling out of and turning into

GT06 Land at Park Farm, Spinney Farm (WDC Alternative Site)
Would harm the rural buffer zone and destroy the visual amenity on the approach to
Warwick
Severely restricts access for the owner of park farm to his remaining land
Proximity to major roads A452 and A425 with accompanying road noise pollution and
access issues
Adverse effect on viability of the farm business
Adverse visual impact on the countryside
Owner not willing to sell - expense of compulsory purchase
GT15 Land to east of Europa Way (WDC Preferred Site)
Access onto Europa Way would be dangerous
BT would have to serve the community but capacity at school is questionable
Doctors surgery is already under pressure
No bus route into Bishops Tachbrook Warwick or Leamington
GT15 is opposite busy trunk feeder
Minimal visual impact
Heavily wooded - no facilities
Steep sloping ground
Road access would need improving
Busy road
Only small site and therefore more sites needed (no doubt in Tachbrook)
No pavements
On motorway feeder
Not on bus route
On busy road accompanying road noise and pollution and access issues
Concerns over flooding and water contamination into the brook
Would require clearing woodland
After Brookside Willows, it does however appear to be the most suitable site
Screen from road
Close to Leamington for doctors and schools etc
Land owned by Council
Traffic calming measures
GTalt01 Brookside Willows, Banbury Road (WDC Preferred Site) is a site I could back and agree that is suitable and manged by an external provider ie housing association not by the gypsies themselves
Ideal location well screened
Site already part prepared
Good road access
Needs a safe pedestrian footpath into Warwick
No immediate neighbours
Infrastructure already in place
Well away from main road
Preferred site
Good access to site already there
Easy access to Warwick Town by Public transport/ on foot
Less traffic that other main roads locally
Reused ground - no flooding
Good site
Planning for Caravan Site anyway: minimal difference and therefore costs are lower
Facilities already in existence
No compulsory purchase necessary
Minimum development needed for occupation
Planning permission approved for a caravan park
* More suitable that some of the alternatives
