Deeley Group Ltd support the identification of Leek Wootton as a Secondary Service Village where between 70-90 homes are required

It is considered that site 10- land at Home Farm, Leek Wootton is an excellent location for additional housing development. Objection is raised to the fact that this site has not been allocated for housing development in particular for the reason that it considered to have ' high landscape impact and poor vehicle access'.
This representation should be read in conjunction with the Statement in support of the Representations also submitted by Deeley Group Ltd.
The site comprises 2.5 hectares of land, it is broadly rectangular in shape and is located on the western edge of the village. The site is accessed off Home Farm a cul-de-sac leading from Warwick Road which currently serves a number of residential properties.
It immediately adjoins the existing built up part of Leek Wootton and is in a sustainable location. The local facilities within the village are within walking distance of the site. These facilities include a primary school, village hall, place of worship and a public house. The village is serviced by public transport, with an hourly bus service to Warwick.
To summarise the site is in a sustainable location, adjacent to the built up area of the village of Leek Wootton. Future residents of the site would have the opportunity to access every day facilities and key destinations by a choice of transport modes. The site is available and achievable and offers a sustainable solution to assist in meeting the housing requirement for Leek Wootton.

It is considered that Leek Wootton settlement boundary should inset the village within the Green Belt. Objection is raised however to the extent of the indicative new settlement boundary for Leek Wootton village. It is considered that the settlement boundary should be amended to include Site 10 land off Home Farm, Leek Wootton.
