I firmly oppose the construction of homes on the Clopton Quarter. Developing this green belt land would damage the landscape, disrupt biodiversity, and threaten local wildlife habitats. Increased traffic will lead to poorer air quality, negatively affecting residents' health. The existing infrastructure cannot handle the additional strain, and removing natural drainage will heighten the risk of flooding. Protecting this land is essential for the environment and future generations. This proposal is unsustainable and should be stopped. Urban expansion here would also have a devastating impact on the Welcombe Hills Nature Reserve.

I feel this (along with SG19) is one of the most suitable sites for housing of all. This is a logical extension to the well established and continued development North of Stratford-upon-Avon. It is well supported by the current and additional infrastructure already being provided there including access to the A46 leading to the M40 motorway, junction 15. Additionally, there is excellent proximity to Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway railway station which clearly has greater capacity for passenger use, including parking, serving Birmingham and London. The investment made in this key piece of infrastructure would be better realised with additional housing surrounding it.

This land is green bełt as now and is liable to flooding it also would causę thurther congestion on Birminghams road
It also will contribute to poor Air quality as conjection on birmingham road
Stratford is already in my mind over developed and at certain times of the day traffic rage is common on Birmingham road
Developers also are bulling the council to build on green belt and they are not really building the types of houses people want to buy

Specifically I disagree with Clopton quarter within SG18 being considered for inclusion. This is green belt land and developing it will negatively impact the Welcombe Hills which is treasured by local residents and wildlife. Developing right next to it would destroy the openness and sense of space for residents as well as causing significant ecological damage to local wildlife. Developing here would endanger and destroy habitats of many protected species including bats, hedgehogs and barn owls. It would also exacerbate Birmingham road congestion and pollution which is already a nightmare for residents on a daily basis!

In regards to the Clopton Quarter parcel of SG18, the loss of green belt land would be irreversible, as would the loss of agricultural land. The visual impact of development would be detrimental to the open green space surrounding Stratford. This area is highly visible from the Welcome Hills. Development here would also increase existing traffic problems and increase emisssions especially on the Birmingham Road. Also the loss of wildlife habitat and the introduction of urban sprawl is unacceptable. There is also an issue with flooding as after heavy rain a lot of water flows through the fields.

This is in regards to Clopton Quarter.
The proposed plans are building on green belt land which was previously deemed unsuitable to build on.
The land itself floods so is not suitable to build on
The Birmingham Road is already congested for most of the day- this will surely only add to this. The air quality will also become worse.
A lot of local wildlife can be found on this land and surely the building will disrupt these habitats.

Strategic Growth Areas which circle historic towns provide a collar affecting both the effectiveness of new development and the pre-existing town. Major growth options spread towards existing villages, potentially overwhelming them, detracting from investment in new settlements.
Stratford-upon-Avon infrastructure is constrained by historic layout of the town, in transport terms, suffers major congestion. The transport assessment supporting these sites around the town, generally suggests that increased bus services could provide connectivity, however in a congested road system, these provide unreliable journeys and are unlikely to be acceptable by many. Therefore the TTG does not support this Strategic Growth area.

Clopton Quarter - This area is greenbelt and it's essential it stays as such. To build here would lose important agricultural land that provides a green corridor to wildlife (deer, badgers, bats, birds and more) and would significantly and negatively impact on the area of beauty that is the Welcombe Hills. If the town were to expand even more into this area, this would push the boundary of the town even wider into green belt that should be protected. The traffic on the Birmingham Road is already horrendous, This would add to even more air pollution and misery to local residents.

Clopton Quarter. This side of town has already suffered from excess housing, thus increasing traffic on a very busy Birmingham Road. Part of the area floods (not only from the brook running adjacent to the fields, but also from run off water from higher land); any increase in housing will put existing properties at risk of flooding. Wildlife would be affected - deer from nearby wood, and the open aspect to Welcombe Hills destroyed. Greenbelt land should remain green belt, preference given to developing brownfield sites, or siting developments away from Stratford, now a sprawling mass without necessary infrastructure.

The area is not suitable for the proposed 700 housing estate development on greenbelt Clopton Quarter SG18. There is not sufficient road infrastructure to cope with the increase of traffic, including Birmingham Road, Oakley Road and Burbage Avenue. This greenbelt area must be protected and maintained as greenbelt, to preserve the remaining wildlife.

I object to the development of this Clopton Quarter parcel of land. This is greenbelt land offering a corridor for wildlife such as protected bats, badgers, barn owls, hedgehogs. It also separates the Heritage of the Grade 2 listed Clopton House from urban sprawl. There would be a detrimental loss of hedgerows and rural charm and scenic qualiy with the area highly visible from the local landscape. Areas of the site also lie in flood zones 2 and 3 which have had drainage and flooding issues eg Balmoral Grove. This greenbelt allows slow release of rainwater to the water table.

Partially - some is outwith greenbelt and therefore appropriate. That contained within the greenbelt may be deemed to be making a low contribution to containing the urban sprawl of the west midlands only due to the large gap between it and Redditch.

My husband {Text redacted as personal name mentioned} is a claims Director within the Insurance industry, and has serious concerns of the impact of the flood planes, particularly around the Clopton Quarter of SG18. With increase in areas flooding due to the change of our climate, insurers are now regualrly excluding flood cover, so the concern is that with all these extra houses being built, which will affect the flood planes, could lead to a vast portion of this part of Stratford being without Insurance flood cover.

The Clopton quarter parcel of SG18 is green belt land so any development would cause irreversible loss Habitat and protected species. The development would increase noise, light, waste and air pollution. Increased traffic on Birmingham Road which is already at a critical capacity would have a negative impact to local and wider communities. The flood risk would also be increased as the site sits on flood zone 2 & 3.

SG18, adjacent to Stratford-upon-Avon, is proposed for development due to insufficient brownfield land. Its location supports sustainable travel, economic growth, and community integration. Proximity to Stratford enables efficient infrastructure extension. Green belt release is justified by housing needs, high prices, and in-migration. Existing road networks offer connectivity, but traffic and public transport require consideration. Redeveloping Langley Farm is favoured over greenfield development, minimising environmental impact by reducing land take, habitat disruption, resource consumption, and carbon footprint. It also offers opportunities for urban regeneration and contamination remediation.

Comments relate to clopton quarter
Should not be developed just because land is available for sale in an area that is an important setting to the town
The same land has been recently already assessed as unsuitable for development
Would create urban sprawl with no improvements to local infrastructure
The historic setting and special character of clopton quarter/stratford should be cherished
Destruction of rural landscape and habitats
Recent new large estates have not seen any improvements in infrastructure so further development would further overwhelm likes of birmingham road, worsen air quality etc.

I feel the loss of open farmland would be detrimental to the Clopton Quarter. The impact on wildlife and reduced air quality due to higher emissions are not acceptable. This is already subject to flooding which will only get worse should it be developed. The local road infrastructure is already at saturation point without adding not only residents own vehicles but also delivery vehicles. Local services such as Doctors/Hospital will also be impacted with higher patient numbers. Its already nearly impossible to get an appointment.

SG18 borders Welcombe Hills & Clopton Park Nature Reserve and would have an irreversible impact on the open landscape and nature itself. We are incredibly blessed to have the nature reserve, which is a critical asset for the local community at a time of deteriorating physical and mental health nationally. I understand the need for more housing but this site is wholly inappropriate if we are to protect the nature reserve and the wildlife within it. SG18 would destroy local habitats, the open landscape and critical amenity space - so called Stratford's best kept secret - forever.

I am commenting on the Clopton Quarter of SG18. This is green belt land and would have a big impact on wildlife. There is not enough infrastructure for extra housing. Birmingham Road is already heavily congested and the amount of extra cars would cause extra pollution. Oakleigh Road is already a rat run and it would become much worse.

The proposed development will have a detrimental effect on protected species and on wildlife generally in the Welcombe Hills; it threatens to reduce biodiversity at a time when the priority should be to increase it. It will have an irreversible impact on the open landscape currently enjoyed from the nature reserve. The greenbelt land and special landscape area is an important asset to the community which should be preserved and turning the area into an urban one takes this asset away.
