Full text:

House building on the site is not reasonable.
Redrose Lane is not fit for the traffic, being too narrow at places.
The installation of utilities will be difficult, being at the edge of the village.
The area is a natural relief floodplain for Blackmore, which already sees almost being cut off by deep water after periods of heavy rain and this development would make the situation worse.
The local community services are already at stretch - parking around the single shop is already a problem; there are no pavements in the area of Redrose Lane, making it potentially unsafe for local pedestrians if this and the adjacent development drive up local traffic.
