As a resident of the village of Leek Wootton I am writing to raise my concerns regarding the proposed development.

It is proposed that a number of homes be built in the village which would increase the overall number of properties by over 23%, this is dramatically more than the allocation for similar villages in Warwickshire. As well as significantly changing the fabric of the village as a mother of two children who attend the local school I am gravely concerned as to the long term implications for the proposal.

The traffic situation through the village is already a serious issue with a constant flow of heavy and commuter traffic, in particular the junction at Woodcote Lane and Warwick road which surely could not accomodate an increase in traffic which the proposed development would generate.

Whilst I accept that a number of houses need to be accommodated within the village the proposed increase would destroy the unique nature of the village of Leek Wootton.
