Bampton against Aston Road and New Road housing developments

beautiful village known and used it for years watched the morris dancers for years as family grew up my children now visit with their children from cornwall and beyond

Will overwhelm and destroy us, as a community.

Too many small villages are losing their identity and being swamped with this type of development.

The Aston Road proposed development is a step too far. Isn't the one on New Road enough for the greedy developers?

Bampton is a beautiful village with a unique tradition. Development on the proposed scale will be the beginning of the end. Any development should be more appropriate regarding scale and style.

More development for reasons of greed and nothing else. Not sustainable and not appropriate. The planning floodgates have opened and this is what happens.

An aesthetic disaster, and where will these new residents work? This scheme is pure lunacy. Time to think about sustainability - where will it end? (I'm 22)

I'm against the proposed developments in Bampton and surrounding areas. Don't destroy our beautiful countryside and the beauty of our villages!

Too large scale .... small roads

I am a new resident and I agree the village is a sensible size. I would not want to live here if it got any bigger

This village is a sensible size at the moment, facilities are adequate for the current population. Schools, Doctors, Broadband, Drainage, Traffic will not cope with these additional houses.

This village is a sensible size at the moment, facilities are adequate for the current population. Schools, Doctors, Broadband, Drainage, Traffic will not cope with these additional houses.

At this time the village cannot cope with these developments. The school and doctors cannot cope with the increase of people. The roads are unable to deal with the extra cars and we have problems as it stands with the conditions of the roads and drainage.

Too many new houses . Roads already congested. Public facilities will be overwhelmed.

Will the developers pay for all the infrastructure needed, such as schools, shops, doctors, improved roads for the extra vehicles, improve the drainage and sewerage?

Development speculators who have no affinity to or knowledge of Bampton must be resisted. Affordable housing for local people is essential to maintain a balanced community so that particularly young people do not feel they have to move away from the village to get their first home of their own. The proposed housing developments will overload absolutely everything; doctor, school, shopping facilities, sewage disposal, roads etc. etc. The residents of these properties will have to travel to work out of the village increasing the traffic particularly at commuting times. With new housing planned in Carterton and Witney there is no need for two new estates in Bampton.

Gladman Developments are trying to ruin our village of Great Ayton in North Yorkshire with a plan for 110 new houses. All of the campaign groups need to get together to put up a combined fight against these greedy developers!

The proposed developments for Bampton are too large for the current infrastructure of roads, doctor's surgery and school, which are at capacity. Many houses planned are 3-5 bedroomed, not the affordable housing that is needed by locals or necessary accommodation for the elderly. Flooding and traffic, already problems will greatly increase and ruin the village and community.

It is the size of this development that concerns me, also the extra traffic it will generate. The risk of flooding is also of great concern.

too many houses means too many cars and an attendant risk of flooding
