Stop building sprawling car-dependent suburbia. You are killing people with these decisions. Cars kill people, stop making people have to get in their cars to get to places. Build high density walkable neighbourhoods with active travel infrastructure.

Paint is not cycling infrastructure.
Buses are bad public transport.
Don't build any detached houses.

I strongly oppose the proposal of SG05 in the South Warwickshire Local Plan. This land is not just open space—it is a vital greenbelt that defines Lillington, Cubbington, and the surrounding areas. Development would erase its historical and environmental significance, strain local infrastructure, and set a dangerous precedent for further urban sprawl. Warwickshire needs thoughtful, sustainable planning that balances housing needs with environmental preservation. Once the greenbelt land is lost, it cannot be restored. I urge the council to protect this land and pursue smarter alternatives that respect the character, heritage, and wellbeing of our communities.

It is stated (in the Green Belt assessment) that Cubbington has coalesced into Leamington. This is the case for a part of New Cubbington, but is not the case for Cubbington village which shares no border with Leamington and has a distinct village character and community. It does not have the same MP. It does not share the same WCC or WDC division/ward with any part of Leamington. It does not come under Leamington Town Council. It has its own Parish Council. In other words, it is separate. Parts of this parcel will merge it into Leamington to its detriment.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I object to the proposal to develop the land between Cubbington and Lillington, as it is vital for local walking and has already suffered from HS2's impact on green belt access. The local infrastructure is inadequate, with Offchurch bridge flooding frequently, and increased traffic would worsen congestion in surrounding areas. Local schools are already struggling, which would be exacerbated by more housing. Additionally, the green space is crucial for the well-being of Leamington residents and the development would threaten local wildlife and Cubbington's community identity. I urge the council to reconsider this plan.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I wish to object to site SG 05 as an area of possible development for houses. I feel that this would be a very bad site to build houses on because they would be a significant increase in traffic, there would be a very significant increased risk of flooding to many properties and businesses both locally and within Leamington as well as much further afield as the water would run off tarmac covered areas instead of being absorbed into the land as it is currently at the moment. There is also a lot of wildlife which lives in the fields and has done for many years, hedgehogs, foxes, deer and badgers which are a protected species

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I am submitting my concerns about the proposal to build up to 5000 homes on areas SG06 and SG05. I believe the plan is flawed due to inadequate access via Sandy Lane, which cannot handle the increased traffic, leading to safety issues for children and pedestrians. The development does not meet the '20 minute neighbourhood' requirement, with local services being too far away. Additionally, there are no plans for new schools, healthcare facilities, or green spaces, and the agricultural land should be preserved for food production. Building on Green Belt land is unnecessary, as there are suitable alternatives.

Re: Proposed future housing development plans - South Warwickshire

I am alarmed at the proposed future housing development plans and object to them. My objections are based on the following points:

1. all of the proposed sites are in the green belt which is not only inappropriate to build on, it also leads to loss of habitat for wildlife which is already massively impacted by the HS2 works and housing developments that have been completed in our area in the past couple of year
2. the sites will also have detrimental impact on local amenities which are already stretched (for example schools, GP surgeries, shops and other community assets)
3. our roads are already congested, so more housing in the area will lead to considerably more pollution from increased traffic. We have limited car parking spaces, which will only get more challenging. increased traffic will have a detrimental effect on pedestrians and cyclists.
4. our infrastructure is under considerable pressure already (Severn Trent for example have said that their infrastructure is under extreme pressure and building more houses will only make this worse).
5. our public services, such as drainage, water supply and increasingly, electricity capacity are inadaquate. Building on arable land between Cubbington and Lillington which is on a slope will lead to more flooding in Cubbington - this is already an issue for Cubbington which will get worse if the fields are built on.
6. more development will have a negative visual impact on the area. Our green spaces are diminishing rapidly leading to loss of recreational spaces and impacting negatively on our mental health. Warwickshire is a beautiful place to live, let’s keep that way.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The individual areas will be swallowed up by the a more remote larger, less focussed council. As for the development areas of SG05 and SG06 it is obvious I would not want to lose the green space opposite Leicester Lane. The local infrastructure is not able to support SO many new houses. There would have to be more schools, more GP surgeries, more NHS dentists. More consideration given to the road usage (already in chaos due to HS2 closures) Not to mention the loss of green fields and the subsequent loss of food production. The sewers and mains water pipes would need to be upgraded. There would of course be a loss of quality of air which is already an issue along Leicester Lane and the A452. Please reconsider these ill thought out plans.

Ymatebydd: Brian Wall

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I oppose development of SG05 for the following reasons:

The land slopes from the high ground of the Lillington Stud Estate to the River Learn and the streams that feed it. Periods of high rainfall are increasing due to global warming. Urbanisation contributes to flood risk. New developments cover substantial areas in impervious surfaces and drastically increase run-off rates. Farmland absorbs, retains and gradually releases heavy precipitations. Rainfall will increase flood risk as excessive rainfall would be channelled directly into the River Learn. This would affect the town centre of Leamington Spa and other potential flood-risk areas along the rivers Avon and Severn.

Development would generate significant additional traffic on unsuitable town centre roads. Access would be difficult to the employment and shopping facilities south of the town and to other local towns. SG06 would have better access via the A452 and A46 and is within walking distance of North Leamington School. Those attending from SG05 would substantially increase traffic during the school run.

SG05 contains long-established hedgerows and mature trees. It is an important area for wildlife, including foxes and badgers.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

This is Green Belt and should be protected - apart from the natural beauty, the area is used daily by local people for recreation. Other non-Green Belt areas should be used before this is even considered.
Traffic will increase as there is no local work/ industry of any significance, therefore the congested road network will be added to.
The field behind Rugby Road has historically been left fallow to mitigate flooding of the fields from local springs - drainage would be a major issue.
Schools will be oversubscribed if they aren't already, along with the associated traffic congestion / road safety issues.
The nearest doctor is in Lillington, which again is no doubt full.
The nearest large shops are all south of Leamington - the congestion and queues when trying to get to them is already significant and will only increase.
Cubbington and Lillington are two separate villages - Cubbington especially has its own identity and community. Adding all these extra houses in the are will destroy the community feel of the village and it will just be taken over by urban sprawl which the fields at least currently prevent.
The fields would be difficult to develop due to the sloping nature of the site, no doubt adding to the cost. Drainage is a real issue here too, with many natural springs especially in the field behind Rugby Road. Flooding would be a major problem after decades of it being managed properly through leaving the field fallow.
The development of HS2 has already blighted the area and surely the village has already had more than its fair share of construction traffic, disruption etc.

I oppose any more houses on this site. There is lack of infrastructure and the Warwick hospital is at capacity and roads will not be able to cope with more traffic. There are flooding issues. The town suffers from traffic jams and congestion due to the overdevelopment and we do not want any more housing in the area.

Ymatebydd: Weston Under Wetherley Parish Council

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I am a Resident of Weston under Wetherley and have lived in Rugby Road for 45 years. I strongly object to any Development in this valuable Green Belt. This huge site has serious Infrastructure problems firstly very limited vehicular access from a narrow strip of land adjacent to the Glebe House Weston, or from the narrow Hunningham Lane leading to a single file Grade 2 listed Bridge by the Red Lion. Totally unsuitable for any Commercial traffic.
The Southern end of this site frequently floods over the road and extensive tracts of Farmland. This constantly limits our own vehicular access three or four times a year.
We have suffered years of disruption from the construction of HS2 on Rugby Road.Your Plan does not show the line of this new Railway which will provide a solid and permanent Barrier from north Leamington to prevent an incursion into the Green Belt.
Finally but by no means all of the many objections this land currently provides two County Council Smallholdings which are a vital resource of Farmland for budding new Farmers to have a start in Agriculture.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

It is my understanding that the South Warwickshire Local plan consultation is ongoing and whilst a large proposed development in Weston under Wetherley is not in the strategic site options remain in consideration for the local plan.

I would like to express my disapproval and concern for any such consideration, plan and or proposal and strongly support avoiding any further development within the greenbelt.

In planning terms HS2 forms a hard landscape feature and permanent solid barrier to the north of Leamington and any further development in this area will result in rapid erosion of greenbelt between Leamington and Coventry, which is already under considerable pressure and could ultimately lead to Coventry's sprawl.

I have other concerns, such as flood risk, lack of suitable infrastructure and general communication and road networks.

As long-term residents we have had to endure the disruption caused by HS2 and further development, on the scale proposed, would lead to years of further disruption as well as irreversible damage to the Warwickshire countryside.

I fully appreciate that development is needed to support growth however I would respectfully ask that less damaging options be considered; use of brown belt and or rejuvenation of existing unused land/areas.
