With a sustainable land supply, continual new settlements are not sustainable, therefore it should not happen. If you do not accept this argument, the other point is that this land is in the greenbelt; there is plenty of land nearby outside the greenbelt on which a settlement could be built so there is no exceptional need for this settlement.

I oppose the proposed location A2 as it is totally inappropriate and would overwhelm, suffocate and change the local landscape and rural setting beyond recognition.

The area is important greenbelt land where development should be avoided, maintaining countryside for all to enjoy. The village of Tanworth and surrounding views and natural habitat and wildlife should be maintained at all costs otherwise it will be lost for future generations to enjoy. Development here will fundamentally change the sense of place for the area. The infrastructure required (roads etc) would add to the immense change in sense of place for the wider area as well. Additionally, Wood End train station is unsuitable for expansion given the depth of cutting and lack of land for parking etc.

This community has already had considerable housing built within the village itself - which is a conservation area! It does not need more. Building again, this close to a conservation area would have a devastating effect on the very fabric of the village which is supposed to be preserved.
Additionally, the effect this will have on the countryside here and rural life in general would be profound. We are not on the outskirts of a city, as many of the other option are. This level of building here would not be easily absorbed.

Old ancient trees
Wildlife habitats: newts, bats , owls , deers , foxes. Huge badger set- We see daily
Roads can’t cope with more traffic - pot holes ; rubbish dumping, lack of any support anyway.
Drs surgery can not cope, staff leaving from the high demand and stress. Struggle to get an appointment as it is.
Important grazing
Small village that people have moved to be away from busy towns and cities
There are so many more obvious areas for housing which wouldn’t have a huge impact on wildlife, trees and the people living here.

This is a quiet rural area, that already has commuter traffic problems during rush hour.
It is an important green belt area - development here would merge with solihull and birmingham.
Large development with destroy the local rural character of the area enjoyed by all residents.

Wrong location / building on green built / will be lobbied by developers as an easy site. Urban sites / brown fields sites first. This would be urban sprawl. Wrong place for new settlement. Should be reviewed against all current policies' - it's not grey belt. Care needed from lobbying mass house builders - as this fits their easy site wins and they will try and push the council to allow these types of sites. Housing can be delivered in better places where local centres are already there and really need new housing to prevent urban decline.

This is rural, undulating, green belt land with limited facilities and rural road transport routes.
A new settlement would completely change the nature of the countryside which is used as rural walking country by people living in the main towns of the area. It provides a "green lung" between the major settlements of Solihull, Birmingham, Stratford and Warwick.

The placement of large scale housing would seriously impact on road capacity, and there are insufficient facilities in Tamworth in arden, Earlswood and wood end to support such a large development. Whilst basic facilities may perhaps be addressable as part of the development, schools, nurseries, take staffing so it would over load existing facilities. Moreover, the placement of large scale housing development would make a poorly maintained b-road (the common) take an A-road capacity with no room for expansion and endangering residents and their quality of life in the process

This site has little or no infrastructure for travel etc. One train an hour to Birmingham/Stratford and virtually no buses. No sustainable low carbon transport options for business or leisure. Inadequate roads. Huge costs to rectify this even if possible. Multiple accessibility and sustainably issues in an area that could be termed remote in this sense. Any development would be highly visible because of the the terrain. Hedgerows would be destroyed and the environment including nearby listed buildings damaged. Others better - for example Bearley/Wimcote looks to be one much more sustainable and deliverable especially in transport/train for example.

The local area has already seen significant increase in new developments which has had a negative impact to road infrastructure, safety and community well being.
Due to the increase in road traffic, Tithe Barn Lane's road surface has been completely destroyed in certain areas, with no sign of repair.

A2 East of Wood End Station near Tanworth
This site is in very open countryside and Green Belt. Nearby Tanworth village is a discrete Conservation Area that has attracted many weekend visitors . There is little existing infrastructure and that is already overstretched. This is a unique part of the West Midlands Green Belt under extreme pressure from aggressively expanding Redditch, Birmingham and Solihull. The M42 and the railway line to Henley may be superficially attractive to planners, but they also represent threats to many of your stated Strategic Objectives 1, 3, 7, 8 and 9.

Transport infrastructure - cannot deliver sustainable travel behaviour, very poor train infrastructure, one line, limited service, between Birmingham and Stratford only. Surrounding road network is typically narrow country lanes with high hedges, unsuited to high volumes of traffic.
Utilities infrastructure is poor - regular power cuts, poor wifi and phone signals.
Unsuitable on landscape grounds - very hilly, open location, susceptible to frequent surface water flooding, green belt area sensitive from a heritage and setting viewpoint, with listed buildings and conservation areas nearby, the proposed building densities are completely out of character for the area, high value area for biodiversity.
