I strongly oppose the proposed housing developments in Shipston on Stour due to serious concerns over flooding, environmental protection, infrastructure strain, and lack of local employment. The town’s roads, public transport, and services are already under pressure, and further development would worsen congestion, increase flood risks, and compromise Shipston’s historic character. Additionally, the loss of essential facilities, such as the recycling centre, and the absence of support networks for vulnerable residents make this proposal unsustainable.

For a detailed breakdown of these issues, please refer to the attached long-form document.

Further development in Shipston on Stour will create mayhem due to a number of factors including
> Current lack of public facilities already an issue (school / doctors etc)
> Current limited transport network and parking
> Lack of jobs in local area
> The fact that SOS is subject to major flood risk
New Housing is important - but so are the lives of existing home owners

We are supposed to be caring for our environment which is not possible in proposing:
1. closing the tip
2. building houses in green areas
Road system cannot cope with large volume of traffic
Doctors surgery cannot cope with more patients as waiting lists are too long at present
Houses are planned in areas of flooding or at risk .
Development of some sites will increase surface water which The Stour cannot cope with
Residents already experience burst manholes caused by increase in rainfall which brings raw sewage to the surface.

Do not agree as Shipston has no infrastructure for more houses. The high and junior schools are full. Recent new estates have caused sewage problems. SG17 is prone to flooding and Shipston itself. Roads, bridges, local villages and Shipston will not be able to cope with the volume of traffic. Shipston has no fire brigade, hospital with beds, bank, train station, regular buses and job opportunities. Ref 148 & 747 is in an Area of Restraint and Ref 148, 747, 552 & 062 within 3km AONB.

Shipston has no train station / unsatisfactory bus service therefore any development will result in more car journeys on already busy and in places single track roads.
Development on the site of the recycling centre will have an environmental impact and longer journey's to depose of rubbish.
The Doctors surgery and high school are inadequate for the existing population and unable to cope with additional demand.
Any development would increase the risk of flooding especially for any development on the flood plain
Existing experience shows that the present sewerage system is already over capacity

1. The current facilities eg medical centre, dentist, opticians and schools are already full/oversubscribed with no room for new people.
2. The area either side of Fell Mill Lane already floods so any new houses would be liable to flooding problems and the surrounding area would have even more problems.
3. Local public transport is limited and infrequent leading to increased car ownership and increased isolation of those unable to drive or afford a car.
4. There are very few employment opportunities locally so the town would become a dormitory with increased traffic clogging the roads.

In 2007, Shipston flooded-town cut off from emergency services from Banbury/Stratford-Car park by Brailes bridge floods- this is point of access for the 148 -Land at Fell Mill . Fell Mill to Shipston is single track and used by agricultural machinery - infrastructure would be too expensive for the Council-if covered by a Section 106 agreement would make any development financially unsustainable - Fell Mill road to Tysoe is single track and there has been one fatality on the road and numerous accidents. there are no local buses and there will be an increase in traffic resulting in further pollution.

I feel the plan to build so many houses on the Honington Road out of Shipston is appalling. The river bridge would never cope with all the extra traffic. The loss of the recycling centre is terrible.

I oppose the proposed housing development in Shipston, particularly between the Sports Club and Angela’s Meadow. Since moving here in 2015, I've observed significant issues: high flood risk, overcrowded schools, insufficient medical facilities, and lack of leisure spaces. The land in question was originally designated for children's football, and its loss means fewer local recreational options. Additionally, the area is prone to flooding, with existing drainage problems, and is home to protected wildlife. The Neighbourhood Plan designates it as a “Wellbeing Zone,” emphasising the need for preservation over development.

Flooding occurs regularly in Shipston including the proposed site, its access roads, parking areas.
Minimal employment in the area will force new inhabitants to drive to larger towns eg Banbury, Oxford, Birminham.
Road networks are limited with pinch points of two small single lane bridges.
Infrastructure does not fully serve existing population: Public transport is inadequate;
There is one local school in Shipston, already oversubscribed, Chipping Camden is also oversubscribed.
Medical services are not adequate for existing population.
The development misses sustainability goals and ignores environmental and heritage issues.

Reference ShipstonSG17 148 747 Fell Mill Lane
I have lived in Willington for 23 years and flooding is a key issue in the proposed area. Substantial development on areas of flooding is irresponsible.
Inhabitants of the proposed site would have minimal access to transport. Car use will be essential for all residents and due to two key bridge access issues it is likely that access will be made via small single track roads through small local villages.
Infrastructure: the local high school is oversubscribed with no sixth form.
Health and other essential services are seriously oversubscribed for existing residents.

Shipston does not have the infrastructure, in terms of employment, transport, educational, or health facilities to support development on this scale. The town has already doubled in size in the past 10 years and is now creaking at the seams. It is an historic market town and should not be expected to inherit the mantle of being the next Redditch or Corby. No one voted for that. The recent green belt developments are intrusive and ugly. Decisions are now being made for short term political purposes and local democracy seemingly has no voice. Enough!

Objection 1: Building on a flood plain or adjacent to a flood plain - the surface water run off from housing estate and roads has to go somewhere, either creating a new flood plain or overwhelming the existing one, risking flooding to existing properties which currently do not flood.

Objection 2: Additional traffic from said housing estate using the bridges in Shipston/Honnington, both of which are single track with no footpath.

I support the strategic objectives of the SWLP, but object to its appropriateness for SG17 particularly sites 148 and 747. SG17 is already suffering the deficit of investment following the addition of 20% to its population and won't support sustainable growth or an improvement to the lifestyle of new residents. Shipston is a rural market town suffering from a lack of education facilities, employment opportunities, good local transport, limited opportunities for commercial investment and severe congestion, which will impact on local heritage buildings and bridges. It needs to upgrade current infrastructure and facilities before it is considered for additional housing.

Whilst I understand that Councils are under presssure from Government to reach targets for increased housing, these consultation documents and plans to develop in SG17 are ill thought out, misleading, inaccurate in many places, as they fail to take the current situation in Shipston intto consideration.
Consideration has not been given of the difference between small rural communitites in Shipston and surrounding areas, compared to other larger towns, where significant infrastructure e.g. health/education/traffic (motorways and dual carriageways) have already been developed.
Reference is made that flood risk has been checked prior to strategie growth areas being selected. This is wrong.

I do understand the Government’s commitment to increase supply of affordable housing and support this. However, the current proposals suggest only 40% affordable housing, which is not what is needed.
For Stratford and Wariwck to suggest finding greenfield sites in these districts by 2050, which when combined covers an area larger than Birmingham, is utterly shocking, and cannot be what is needed.
I believe there are still more options to be sought in these districts from brownfield sites (for example the row of houses by St Mary’s Collegiate church in Warwick, which were formerly council offices, and were remodelled some 10 years ago or areas with empty/unused business premises).
Finally, I would urge Stratford to review their plans at Long Marston and Bearley and move to complete.
