Please explain your reasons
The RN214 site and most of RN213 site are parish council land. The parish council has not put these sights forward.Any recommendations of these sights has not been communicated to the village until very recently. This small village would change dramatically if these number of houses were built on any of the two sites.Affordable housing should be on small sites and if possible where there is an existing building, and carried out gradually. This would allow integration into the village.Housing should be across the parish and not just Brigsteer.
RN227 It would be a blot on the landscape , it is very wet and subject to flooding. It would be seen for miles around.As well as being a site on to which a number of septic tanks flow.
Brigsteer has no shop ,no school,no employment ,and now, no bus sevice.
