SG17 proposed expansion of Shipston is untenable. The proposed location to the east of the town on the Stour floodplain floods every winter. They are water meadows for a reason and Shipston has suffered terrible floods over the years and any further development will only make things worse.
Why has Shipston been considered for further housing as it is unclear where these people will work and there are not many employers requiring more staff in the town. Inevitably people will have to commute (some distance) by car which is inconsistent with the plans environmental and net zero aspirations.
