Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe Parish Council considered your Core Strategy document at its recent meeting and wishes to comment on Alternative Site 4, Loes Farm, Guy's Cliffe, Warwick as this property is partly within the Parish and partly immediately adjoining it.

We assume that the plan included shows the total extent of the landholding of Mr & Mrs Forrester of Loes Farm and not necessarily the land that could be developed.

The Parish Council would strongly object to the development of all or any of this property as it would encroach deep into the Green Belt buffer that currently exists between the village of Leek Wootton and Woodloes Park/Warwick. We would object even more strongly to development of the lands within the Parish and on the north side of the A46 as this would not form part of the current village and the access thereto via North Woodloes would be inappropriate and unacceptable.

We would further object as such development would remove the rural setting in which the Saxon Mill, Guy's Cliffe House, the Riding Stables and Hinton's Nursery are currently and appropriately situated.
