Dear Alistair,

Thank you for your swift response to my telephone conversation with you. I cannot, after one hour of looking at the SLDC site, find either MMO72U or RN193 and must therefore rely on what you are saying, that there is no immediate intention to build houses on the two fields at the top of Union Lane. I presume that this will be discussed when a planning application is entered.

However, I am asking that you forward my response to the relevant department, which is, that I am concerned about the extra traffic generated down Union Lane, if such a planning application is successful. I note that Gill Banks is a designated preservation area but feel that it would be affected negatively by all the extra building work, traffic and general mayhem caused by having a large number of houses built on these two fields. I wonder also if it has been taken into consideration the extra potential for flooding in south Ulverston. The problem of flooding has not yet been sorted out and having more dwellings and subsequent drainage will just add to the concern that south Ulverston residents feel. This constitutes my response to the consultation period.
