The site is in the green belt and there are no exceptional circumstances to justify it. Government guidance indicates that unmet need is unliely to justify green belt sites.
A previous application here has been refused and dismissed on appeal. Part of the reason was access.
There would be a significant visual impact as the site is elevated and is at the entrance to the village. Any development and/or screening would have a significant impact on the open views.
If the access was from henley Road it would be on to a busy road and would be a hazard with fast moving vehicles.
Hampton on the Hill is not a sustainable location for housing and the same should apply for a G&T site.
Local schools and GPO surgeries are at capacity.
A power line crosses the site which would be a constraint.
Traffic noise and air quality would be a concern.
The site is subject to surfce water flooding.
Allocating this site would be a significant precedent.
