Wed.05/07/17 - We wish to object to the proposed development off Hollins Lane, Arnside. We have lived at xxx xxxx, Arnside since December 2005. Before we purchased the property we were assurded by the previous owner that the field behind us was not suitable for development due to the narrow single-track road Hollins Lane which has no footpath or width for one and the entrance to the field was unsuitable for vehicle access. After we decided to purchase the property which was a 2 x bedroom detached dormer bugalow we applied for and were granted permission to add an en-suite bedroom over the double garage with a balcony overlooking the field to the East. On the side of the balcony overlooking next doors bungalow No.xxx we were not allowed to have glass due to protection of their privacy and had to choose wood or brick and we chose wood. If any properties were to be built in the field behind us the occupants would have no privacy as we would overlook them due to the slope of the land. The field in question has little top-soil and consists of solid limestone making any foundation and drainage very difficult. In addition the wall which divides us from the field is very old and in a poor state and would be unsafe and a danger to anyone particularly children being close to it. There are no pavements in Silverdale Road from its junction with Briary Bank to a point past our cul-de-sac towards Hollins Lane which causes problems for pedestrians and is very dangerous for children and parents pushing prams.
