Brownfield sites would be a preferable option ,however,the villages already have issues with isolation due to poor transport infrastructures. economically the villages are also suffering in terms of small businesses and losing facilities such as libraries and post offices. Congestion on the roads due to excessive parking and the use of smaller roads as rat runs are also issues that need consideration. Any development should therefore include the improvement of transport links and existing services (community tariff?). emphasis should also be placed on village requirements in terms of housing, elderly residents and first time buyers.
