Please explain your reasons
This proposed site is far to near to the a590 and the local junior school. Traffic is horrendous every day of the week , so why add more traffic to this area. The proposed fields are excellent for grazing , and are used all year round.
I suppose tests have been done to check for the mines which run from lindal to swarthmoor , under the proposed fields. Subsidence is going to happen . 5 years ago we had to build a new dividing wall , because the wall that was there was on an angle , it was falling down.
Surely other sites are available which does not intrude on residents which already live there.
The only people who are to gain from this is the person selling the land. Isuggest this proposed site be scrapped.
