Too close to residential property. Roundabout at former hospital site is extremely busy and not suitable for funeral cortege traffic. Too close to historic site of Battle of Bannockburn. Too close to community owned Bannockburn House. Too close to farm land and HGV truck stop. Not a good site for this facility. Ground was gifted to the people of Bannockburn and we do not want it used in this way. Also have conerns over air pollution.

the site is too close to bannockburn village,and will cause congestion on the road to forth valley hospital, where ambulances could be held up,manor powis on the alloa road would be less disruptive.

Stirling does need a crematorium but not just a few miles and on the same route as the one currently used in Camelon. This would in no way help the people living in the north and west of Stirling District.

Always thought the land was donated by the people of Bannockburn for the purpose of building a hospital therefore the land should be returned to the community

Agree the need for a cremitorian in this area but not on this site. This road is the main route to the hospital and has a continual high volume of trafic continually. Also having seen the plans it's doubtful that it can cope with the trafic coming and going from the there. Would be helpful if the emergency services would comment on how it would affect them going and returning from hospital, accidents and serious incidents. Should the new builds go ahead then the trafic would increase and this would only add the the trafic mayhem.

If Bannockburn House is redeveloped there will be additional traffic on the access road. It will increase the large volume of traffic the road already carries, not to mention the fact that ambulances regularly use this road and cars trying to get in and out of a crematorium will just cause more delays. I don't think it will make a very attractive neighbour to Bannockburn House for tourists. There are plenty of other sites than can be developed nearer to communities who need a crematorium nearer to them.

I object to this facility being on this site. Road is regularly used by ambulances on route to FOrth Valley hospital and it would be very undignified for a funeral cortege to have to pull up to let them pass. Very busy access roads off the Bannockburn roundabout which are regularly blocked up as it is. Far to close to farm land and surrounding properties. The land was gifted to the people of Bannockburn and should be returned to commuity ownership. It is also far to close to the historic Bannockburn House and the historic Battle of Bannockburn sites. Not the right place for this facility. I am also concerned about the environmental impacts.

I oppose this site being used as a crematorium. Ambulances regularly fly up and dien this road. It is a busy roundabout for access to the motorways. It is in middle of farm land. Crematoriums are one of the worst polluters. It is too close to main housing estate at Gartclush Gardens. Funeral corteges deserve more respect than this over busy access road will provide.

close to residential area , very busy main roads, six miles from recently refurbished crematorium, elevated site that would be wrong for this historic village.

This is the wrong place for this facility for many reasons. The traffic issues alone should be enough to stop this going ahead.

Agree the need for a new crematorium but the location is wrong.

Totally against this it is to close to houses there are more open areas out Dumbarton road or on road to Callander.

This is not the best location for a crematorium to serve the people of Stirling District

Poor choice of location for such an important project.
