I object to sites R25 and R26 within the LDP.
Not chosen for good planning protocols, but convenient due to developers lined up.
At last LDP iteration - inappropriate to develop in the villages due to a lack of infrastructure. Nothing changed. The scale of 70 new houses in a village of 350 houses is totally out of proportion - will change character. Poor access. Flooding risk to village increased. Lack of good transport links. Blackmore School at capacity - would force pupils out of the area. No 'very special circumstances' to warrant building on greenbelt.
