R.E. Development of S50:
I wish to object to the further development of land at the rear of St Johns. The area identified is fertile agricultural land that is heavily utilised throughout the year. The land clearly falls outside of brownfield site development and the existing development boundaries and is therefore a progression into the Green Belt. The views and wildlife that this location affords makes it wholly unsuitable for development without significant damage to the environment in many ways. The access to the site has also reached saturation point in recent years whereby cars are now routinely being parked on St. John's from the overspill on Emesgate lane, the consequense being that the access road has now become a single track lane with viewing splays significantly reduced coming out onto Emesgate Lane. Any further increase in either parking or trafffic volume will further exacerbate this situation, this is evident during school times due to its closed promitmity to the primary school and Church.
