SG16 [In particular Site Ref 623]

Objection To House Building Site Ref 623 I wish to formally object to the building of houses on the above site for the following reasons.
1.Wellesbourne has seen significant house building over the recent years and has now reached its limit.The current infrastructure is at breaking point.The school is oversubscribed as is the doctors surgery and dentist practice.The level of traffic through the village is far too great.
2.The vehicular access to this site is totally in adequate both from Lowes Lane and Walton Road.The Lowes Lane access point is currently a public footpath.If access to this site was via Chapel Street or Lowes Lane it would be totally inadequate.Car parking down Chapel Street restricts access for any large vehicles at the best of times and the increase in traffic would cause issues regarding health and safety.
3.Adjacent to the historic buildings within the conservation area the site is inappropriate and would be detrimental to the area.The site is an important area of open space.
4.Probably and most importantly the site is within Food Zone 3.The site is constantly waterlogged.Any build form on this site would increase flooding issues within the areas of Lowes Lane and Chapel Street which have suffered flooding in recent years.Building on this site would only push the issue further down the area.
5.Conclusion
This site is totally unsuitable for development due to inadequate access,flooding issues and it’s detrimental effect on the historic element of the original village.The infrastructure can no longer accommodate additional housing.Wellesbourne has been recently developed to capacity and hence this site in particular is totally inappropriate and wrong.
