I live next to the racecourse and the ammount of wildlife we have here is incredible, barn owls, bats, shrew, humming bird moths, deer, buzzards...the list goes on. These will all be removed from this area of outstanding natural beauty by an area of unnatural drudgery causing infrastructure stress to a quiet area with difficult access. Gone will be the dark skies and the run off of water from such a large concrete development will be devastating. Loss of farmland that we won't get back.

Productive farmland can never be recovered once lost to development. Literally in our back garden, barn owls, bats, birds, dormice and so many more species will all be displaced.
The flooding is already devastating as run off from the fields, imagine how much worse it will be once paved over.
Brownfields sites are available for development with amenities and infrastructure in place. Our precious AONB should be preserved, they are outstanding for a reason.

Totally against this development. The infrastructure is not there to support, we need the land for global climate security. Leave the land alone!

Taunton Vale has contributed enough land to new homes.

There is not enough infrastructure for this and why is no one ever considering the wildlife. Also where is the extra water, hospitals, doctors, police, ambulances coming from? such a crazy idea yet again.

No new builds should be built on the footings of the Blackdown Hills, especially when new builds have yet to be built and sold in Taunton.

Green land is important, this is farming land. Taunton doesn't want to become any bigger, the infrastructure cannot cope now.

We need to protect the land and the ancient woodland so that it can be enjoyed for generations to come. We don’t need more concrete and pollution

We are losing to much countryside for people to buy houses to charge exorbitant rent not for locals

Need to protect our countryside. Building that amount of housing without infrastructure, more GP, schools etc will just cause mayhem

To build on this beautiful productive farmland is unnecessary when there are brownfield sites that could be developed. This is a special and important landscape bordered by important woodland with sssi and oanb status. The authorities said they would never build in this way east of the M5, yet again they lie.

This will destroy our local wildlife in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The infrastructure cannot sustain any further development let alone one of this scale.

This is an area of outstanding beauty much lived and used by those enjoying a rural life. It enables recreation for many thousands each year walking hiking nature watching mountain biking. There are brown field areas that are more appropriate

Stop this madness! There is far too many houses compared to schools, gp surgeries and musgrove won’t cope - utter shocking
