Poor road infrastructure and no local transport links that are in close proximity. Lack of amenities including access to shops which are based in the south will cause increased congestion on poorly maintained and collapsing roads. They are building on green belt land which offers mental and physical health benefits. The large swath of building with encompass the current area and settle habitat of local creatures.

This area provides an open space to the north of Leamington which is accessible to all. If you remove the farmland around the public right of way between Northumberland Road and Old Milverton residents will be forced to walk up the Kenilworth Road to access the rights of way around Hill Wootten to gain a similar experience. Apart from the walk on the pavement along the Kenilworth Road being not particularly pleasant, for the young or elderly this may simply be too far.

Leamington / Blacktown / Old Milverton are distinct geographic entities which would be impacted by the ‘infilling’ that SG06 would cause. Maintaining the integrity of the ‘Green Belt’ in this location will prevent that. The existing road infrastructure would struggle to cope with the scale of proposed housebuilding. As there are no major retail outlets or supermarkets in Leamington North it would place an unacceptable burden on the roads to the town centre and the five river crossings. An increase in traffic would also result in an increase in air pollution through the town centre.

It is green belt land so it shouldn’t be built on if there is somewhere else that can be built on instead.
2 miles of rural footpaths that are used daily by local people and their dogs, this massively helps reduce obesity in humans. Obesity causes a lot of health issues and puts strain on the NHS. I am a veterinary surgeon working in Warwickshire and I see firsthand how this will impact the local dogs’s health too if you get rid of all of these countryside footpaths and therefore reduce people exercising.

Leamington has already exploded in the past five years. The roads are jammed, the services are overstretched and the vast housing developements and population explosion is changimg the character of the area and making it unpleasant. Infrastructure cannot cope with all the new 29,000 homes being concentrated in a few massive developments in the area particularly south Leamington and Whitnash which is gridlocked. These houses need to be fully dispersed across the whole of warwickshire with every town and village taking a handful of them. This woudl be a fairer, more sustainable appproach as the infratrusture wil alsways play catch-up.

Development of the Blackdown area and area around north leamington school would require significant changes to the road network losing hedgerows and trees . This site is also not with walking distance of services . Has 15 minute neighbourhoods been coincided and comments from Active travel England ?

The Green Belt around North Leamington continues to fulfil the stated purposes of Green Belt land. South Warwickshire’s housing need can be met without building on green belt land. Strategic Growth Locations and New Settlements, which are NOT in the green belt have capacity for 48,500 dwellings and 6,000 dwellings respectively. Development of the land in question would involve a substantial expansion of the built up area into currently open countryside to the north of Leamington. It would have a significant adverse impact on the openness of the Green Belt, the character of the town and appearance of the area.

I am a resident of North Leamington (CV32 5LS), and the land under threat, SG06, is an oasis of nature to escape the built up town. This was invaluable during the COVID pandemic to countless residents.
From Table 3, I note that 28,257 new houses need to be found in South Warwickshire. However, from Table 5.1 and Table 6.1, I count up that there are over 50,000 houses possible in non green-belt land. Thus, there is no reason why the sacrosanct principle of the green belt should be revoked to meet this target.

I strongly oppose the loss of greenbelt land at site SG06 for several reasons. I feel the loss of the greenbelt, which is hugely important to the local area and its residents given there is little other green space in North Leamington, is not necessary to provide the level of housing required for the area and is highly unsuitable given the size of the area proposed. The site’s lack of accessibility via public transport, lack of amenities and provision make it highly unsustainable and there are available sites in the area able to provide the government’s targets for housing.

The Local Plan's own Sustainability Appraisal shows that:
• Strategic Growth Locations which are NOT in the green belt have capacity for 48,500 dwellings (Table 5.1).
• New Settlements which are NOT in the green belt have capacity for a further 6,000 dwellings (Table 6.1).
This means that it is possible to meet housing need without building on green belt land. Sufficient capacity exists at
Strategic Growth Locations outside the Green Belt to meet the Local Plan dwelling requirements to 2050. Therefore,
exceptional circumstances cannot be met to release green belt sites to meet the housing requirements.

I oppose the proposal to build new dwellings on the 360-acre site in North Leamington's Green Belt. This land should remain untouched as it is high-quality agricultural land and serves as important recreational space for locals. The existing infrastructure is insufficient, and new homes would exacerbate traffic congestion in already crowded areas. The proposed development does not align with the District Council's sustainability goals, and the distance from the railway station would necessitate car use. As a long-term resident of North Leamington, I feel compelled to voice my strong opposition.

I fully support the views of Old Milverton and Blackdown Parish Council in their entirety. I also contend that the Arup Green Belt review of 18.09.24 is fundamentally flawed. Its assessment of parcels LSP1 and LSP2 on pages 116/117 in particular does not stand up to scrutiny. The assessment that these parcels make a 'weak contribution' to Green Belt purposes does not flow from the assessment. This land makes a strong contribution - see arguments of above Parish Council. Therefore, I most strongly oppose the Plan. (BTW - 100 words is hardly enough to make an argued case).

This is Green Belt and should be protected - other areas outside of the Green Belt should be used before this is even considered.
Traffic will increase in the area - there is no local work or industry of any significance, thus the congested road network will be added to.
The area has already been blighted by the development of HS2.
Local services are already stretched - the nearest doctor is in Lillington, schools are over-subscribed and the nearest large shops are to the south of Leamington, getting to which would add to the already congested roads.

I am opposed to the proposed growth for the following reasons -
1) Green belt land is protected for a reason and alternative sites must be sought. They serve to protect urban sprawl and maintain the characteristics of our town.
2) Transport links are already stretched and additional building in this area would acerbate that, leading to increased noise and air pollution.
3) The agricultural land is ALC grade and should be protected as a means of sustainable food production.
4) Green belt land is essential in maintaining biodiversity and contributes to mental and physical well being.

SG06 would promote car use than reduce it. The growth of Leamington is constrained by the need to cross the 2 rivers and the railway line which divides the town north to south. The roads infrastructure does not meet the need. All the shops are on the south side of the town. I dont understand the need to build on green belt land which is in use as farmland and also provides enjoyment for locals because of the use of its public footpaths. Its a wonderful area to walk through, you see buzzards, kestrels, deer and foxes.

Violates local plan priorities:

3) Removes most beautiful walks and views - including graveyard.

I strongly believe that SG06 should NOT be included as a preferred option site as it is part of the West Midlands Greenbelt and home to diverse plant species and wildlife, including endangered species.
Wildlife habitat and biodiversity has already been greatly impacted in our local surround by HS2 construction without irreparably damaging this ecologically valuable area which also provides immeasurable benefit to residents' mental and physical health as well as having the highest concentration of very good quality agricultural land making it a valuable resource.It is possible to meet housing needs WITHOUT building on greenbelt land.
