I refer to the WDC document on Cubbington Conservation Area whihc states 'Conservation areas are a fragile environment which can soon be destroyed by unsympathetic changes. The village of Cubbington has been selected as a place with special characteristics worthy of designation as a part of our local and national heritage. It is important to preserve them both as a historical and social record, together with a pleasant environmetn to be enjoyed by those who live in them and for the enjoyment of others'
The green belt land between Cubbington and Lillington should be protected as Cubbington village and Lillington are two separate communities. Preference should be given to non-designated green belt sites for development. The proposed development would cause devastation to the local wildlife.
The access roads off Parklands Avenue are unsuitable for the huge increase in traffic. Congestion would become unbearable and there have already been many collisions at the junction of Telford Avenue, Cubbington Road and Parklands Avenue. This would only increase if the development goes ahead.
THe heavy clay soils would increase the problems of flooding which Cubbington village and properties in Oakridge Road, Cubbington Road and Parklands Avenue have already experienced, causing great distress to the residents.
All the major food retailers are situated at the south of the town and Leamington would become more congesteed as people travel to the supermarkets putting additional pressure on the towns bridges.
For the reasons above, I strongly believe that the Glebe Farm site should not be considered for development
