Storth - Quarry Lane

I support the redevelopment of brownfield land at this location. However, the development of greenfield land within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty should be avoided unless it is absolutely essential. The greenfield elements of this proposal would have a significant negative impact on the setting of Storth village. These fields are the only undeveloped green space remaining anywhere near the village centre, and are very prominent in views from Quarry Lane and Yans Lane. The playing field is not sufficient to meet this need; it is surrounded by development, and includes play equipment, parking, and Heron Hall and its curtilage. The two fields north of Yans Lane are therefore important to the feel of the village, reflective of its roots in farming, and a lovely transition between developed areas and woodland. All this would be lost by the development proposed.
