Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Inappropriate development of green belt, when alternatives are available.
Unsuitable road infrastructure, traffic congestion and increased risk of accidents (junctions to busy road). Diverted traffic through villages pose risk to people, children, deer and other wildlife.
Risk to walkers crossing A3400 to access popular public footpaths.
Impact on heritage/listed buildings; damage by increased vibrations, ruin character/settings.
Increased population would have disastrous impact on wildlife with increase noise, light, vibrations, smells etc.
Sprawling urban development, trashing through green belt/conservation land disrupting existing wildlife habitats.
Exacerbate existing flooding concerns.
Lack of amenities to support increase in population.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I believe that the proposed development would ruin the character of Bearley village. It would have a devastating impact on the local wildlife, including birds of prey, otters, deer and bats to name a few. The local road network and infrastructure is not enough to cope with the extra 10000 vehicles - it was not enough at a recent event held at the Village Hall, taking up vital policing resources. The demand for doctors surgeries, dentists, schools, shops will not be able to met and this will impact on all local villages, losing their character forever.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

This is the most inappropriate development that one could expect to see. A small vibrant village will be destroyed and the associated infrastructure will have an enormous effect on nearby communities. Traffic increase will seriously effect near by villages and the proximity to major roads also is quite dangerous.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The proposed location in Bearley/Wilmcote to be wholly inappropriate.
Apart from the train station there are no facilities in Bearley - no shops, no school, no medical servicesetc. The nearest are all full to capacity and unable to serve the current population.
The road infrastructure is totally inadequate to serve the number of homes proposed and 6,500 homes would have a severally detrimental effect on the surrounding neighbourhood.
The Birmingham Road into Statford already struggles with the volume of traffic and there is often a lengthy delay at the roundabout at the junction of the A46 and the Henley/Birmingham Roads.

employment? Little extra locally.
=commuting=more congestion.
A3400/46 inadequate.Upgrading=environment loss -more pollution, hedgerows lost wildlife affected.
Increased traffic impacts town centre of S o A and local villages character. Rat runs- effect on small villages
Costs of infrastructure upgrade - who pays?

Green Belt loss- urban sprawl, ruins beauty, tranquility=loss to locals + visitors.

Local rail inadequate -parking and services, frequency of services -cf Leamington Spa and Hatton.
Narrow roads, upgrading -ve effect rural ambience and character.

Climate change -Wilmcote high risk for flooding-SDC
High density build= new problems, village centre flood risk high.
run off -impact on railway line?
Infrastructure-sewerage?

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Against 6700 house in the middle of open countryside, with only B3400 as existing infrastructure. Traffic from potentially 30000 extra people would add to Birmingham Rd congestion and difficulties at Featherbed lane and Gospel Oak lane junctions.
Stations at Wilmcote and Bearley already have insufficient parking.
Facilities in the surrounding area, i.e., schools, parking, medical, sports and social are already overcrowded. Developments of this size need to be part of town, not satellite communities infringing on the rural environment.

Ymatebydd: Mrs REBECCA Dutton

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

We've lived in Bearley for nearly 20 years and are surrounded by beautiful countryside. The land proposed for the new town has a tendency to flood; this would cause destruction to many properties and land. It would also destroy the wildlife corridors and green belt between Bearley and surrounding villages. Do we really want a sprawling town which would increase our population by 2000%? Our infrastructure would be unable to cope; it's already struggling since the building of many new houses/businesses on roads leading into Stratford upon Avon. We must act responsibly and protect our beautiful countryside for future generations.

Bearley not suitable for development:
-no suitable connection to Stratford, Henley, motorway;
-single lane railway NOK for commuting;
-proposed plots inside the village or close to village are having single lane;
-archaeological sensitivity area on some plots , ancient/roman fort just discovered on plot 123 behind Grange Road;
-destroying rural English village;
-negative impact for wildlife movement, air quality, environment;
-high flood risk Grange Road homes;
-development against Green Belt rules.
-the village would become a town split in 2 by Birmingham Rd. hard to accommodate the residents crossing the road and the traffic in same time.

Ymatebydd: Mr Phillip Ledgard

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Whilst accepting that the UK needs many more houses, the Stratford District has already contributed to its contribution to that nationwide effort. The volume of extra housing being sought from our area is now wholly unjustifiable. I believe that residents in the Wilmcote area accept that some building will be required and indeed may be helpful to support local infrastructure and services (trusting that would in fact follow). However, the number included in this plan is obscene. The impact on our local countryside, it's wildlife and heritage cannot be right at this volume being proposed and is utterly absurd.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Wilmcote is an established heritage village with fragile heritage buildings in a Conservation area. The impact of a massive new build adjacent to the village would be catastrophic and undermining to the existing community, adding an urban sprawl ribbon engulfing our existing centres of Wilmcote, Pathlow and Bearley.
The resultant traffic congestion on entry/exit village (A3400) will hugely impact on all in employment (bottlenecks in Henley and Birmingham Rd in Stratford cannot be solved by road widening). The resultant loss of Green Belt with existing environment and eco systems will be irreparable. Strongly Object.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I strongly object to the proposed development on the following grounds:
1. This will be a new TOWN divided by the dangerous A3400 putting lives at risk.
2. There will be thousands more vehicles on the Bearley/Snitterfield road.
3. Local schools, doctors etc could just not cope with these numbers.
4. The proposed development is on farmland so the countryside would become an urban sprawl

Ymatebydd: Mr Madjid Mokrani

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I strongly oppose the proposed development of 6,800 homes in Bearley, as it threatens local wildlife, overwhelms infrastructure, worsens flooding risks, and destroys the village’s rural character. The plan contradicts national planning policies that emphasise protecting biodiversity, prioritising brownfield development over greenfield sites, and ensuring infrastructure can support new housing. Bearley lacks the roads, schools, and healthcare facilities to sustain such growth. I urge the Council to conduct a full environmental assessment, explore alternative sites, and engage with residents before proceeding. Protecting Bearley’s heritage and environment must take precedence over unsustainable expansion.

Ymatebydd: Mrs Diane Revell

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed housing development near Wilmcote. Wilmcote is a historic and rural community with a unique character that would be irreversibly damaged by large-scale housing development. It would:

1: Overburden Local Infrastructure
2. Harm the Natural Environment
3. Increase Traffic and Safety Risks
4. Erode Wilmcote’s Village Identity
For 6,700 homes, you’d likely need:
• 6-7 primary schools
• 1-2 secondary schools
• 2 medium GP surgeries (or 1 large medical centre)
Also dentists, nurseries and pharmacies. Will these be provided?
Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

This response is in 2 parts with regards to BW, Renewable Energy & Housing.
Renewable Energy: Specific to RefID 673. Global warming needs urgent action to reduce Co2 levels. Solar farms & alternative energy systems are paramount to achieving reductions. The location of 673 is south facing, ideal for solar farming & biodiversity of plants & wild life.
Housing: BW is unsuitable for the following reasons: Lack of Power, Water & Sewerage infrastructure. Poor road access. Flooding made worse to existing properties & roads as well as new developments. There will be a dramatic increase in air and noise pollution.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

This plan will ruin the conservation and cultural heritage of this historic village.
* increased traffic through village roads not designed for heavy usage affecting residents safety and historic building structures.
*removal of hedgerows will impact negatively and heavily on existing wildlife.
* area already identified as high risk for flooding and disturbance of land plus increased surface water run off and insufficient drainage systems will increase risk.
* The A3400 already has major congestion problems all year round. The road infrastructure will not cope with the increased traffic and commuters but will be extremely costly to upgrade.

There is simply not the infrastructure, want or even need for this development. Wilmcote and Bearley are beautiful villages that already struggle with heavy traffic flow. There is no place for new houses in this area ESPECIALLY as it requires building on the green belt. As a young person surely for future generations you understand the damaging nature of this development and lack of conceivable benefits to the local community.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The transport infrastructure just isn't there for the Wilmcote site. The train station goes to Birmingham but not many other places! If people moving to this site are supposed to be commuters from down South, it can't be argued that they will catch the train to be more environmentally friendly as that just would not be possible. No distant commuters will catch trains, they will be driving 10,000 more cars to work increasing pollution and congestion in an already congested town! The surrounding country roads and small town of Henley will just not be able to cope with the traffic!

I am really concerned about the proposed settlement at Bearley and Wilmcote for the following reasons:

Flood risk, Wilmcote already identified as high risk for flooding by SDC…. Further risks likely to villages downstream from the from run off from settlements
Road infrastructure is not suitable, already congestion on A46 and A3400 and this will get worse
Heritage and Conservation Area - Mary Ardens House, a sight of global and national interests will be damaged.
Mental wellbeing of locals and visitors to the area due to loss of green spaces

I strongly object to the development on land around Wilmcote/ Bearley
Feather bed land high risk area for flooding
Loss of green belt land, joining the villages resulting in urban sprawl
Loss of wildlife habitat, foxes and deer are often seen around Featherbed Lane
No jobs locally, so will be an increase in congestion at junction with A3400and other roads
Increased traffic into Wilmcote if station is to be used causing a reduction in air quality and impact the significant historic nature of Wilmcote
Increased pressure on our local hospital(Stratford) and Warwick when already under significant pressure

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Greenbelt, footpaths, biodiversity and wildlife habitats preservation a priority to reduce urban creep/sprawl and for wellbeing.

The proposed BW development, a New Settlement, without a centre bisected by the A3400 and therefore, not a community and the size proposed is out of proportion with surrounding area. Most congested route into Stratford.

Wilmcote is of historic, tourist and educational interest due to William Shakespeare and this will not compliment this.

Rural roads flood regularly, are damaged and not well maintained, narrow, unpaved and unsuitable for many vehicles. Rat runs exacerbated when issues on A46, M40, M42 & M5 will get worse.

Concern over proposed plan primarily impact on schools and services in area. Existing poor service of public transport means more use of cars, at least 2 cars average on each family means thousands more cars which will have knock on affect to surrounding areas. Would need assurances as to how these plans will be addressed, for example space fo AT LEAST 2 cars per house/flat, increase public transport spending and better train link. Size is major concern, why can this not be spread over more area with leass housing on each site? The scale is what most object to.

Developing this on green belt land is not necessary
There will be huge increase in vehicles on the Birmingham Road AND ALL surrounding villages
Obvious negative safety consequence for road users (inc' cyclists) and pedestrians
This will drive noise and air pollution in a VERY wide area, way beyond the proposal boundary
Large negative impact on the environmental beauty and diversity of the area
