The Parish Council does not want any of the extra housing that is being imposed on the country by government edict. However, recognising that our voice is of minimal consequence, we are relieved that the only area in the parish that is under threat is the proposed Coventry "overspill" area at Finham and to this we have strong objections. The proposal for housing here would swamp the infrastructure of the area. The house number proposed would be several times those that exist in Stoneleigh. This is not a sustainable proposal without extensive infrastructure investment. transport, principally roads, employment, but shopping, medical support, play areas and drainage would all be required.

The proposal to build 800 houses in Eastern Kenilworth on the area of land adjacent to the A46 from Thickthorn Island towards Coventry is of great concern to the village of Ashow. Water draining from the A46 and the built up area of Eastern Kenilworth all comes down the watercourse through Ashow.
U ntil a bypass culvert was constructed there was severe flooding in the village. The water discharge from the built up area in Eastern Kenilworth and the A46 being responsible for the flooding. The "holding ponds" that were to be part of the flooding solution along with the bypass culvert have not been constructed.
There is severe ground erosion in some house gardens downstream of the new culvert's junction with the original. This erosion is due to the increase in the speed and volume of flood water flow.
Any further house build in Eastern Kenilworth is likely to add to the flood water flow. If development does take place it would be essential to survey the whole of the drainage basin. The drainage calculation data should be published. It should be noted that the drainage data from the A46 development has been lost.
