Such an impact on the village can't be good particularly if the infrastructure isn't there to support the added numbers of people, cars services and so on. Also, as a conservationist beekeeper I find the destruction of hedgerows, trees & wild flowers in the field some thing of a blow for insects.

Development of 100 houses will lead to an influx of cars and people that our small village would not be able to handle. This development cannot go ahead.

Too many houses in an area which floods, lack of amenites (school places etc) narrow roads, access via narrow country lane.

far many houses for the area allotted, but it will make someone rich

The only acces to this field is by very narrow lanes with dangerous bends and no pavements but lined with houses. The previous owners tried for years to have this field re-designated but were always turned down by NSC. The situation has not improved. Rather, traffic is now worse.

to put the proposed number of houses here is an outrage. This is a village not a town, we don't have the infrastructure to deal with this many houses here.

Unless they want to buy everyone gondolas, this is not a good idea.

Claverham would never cope with the additional houses, the field is already a floodplain, i remember a few years back it flooded so bad then froze, we were using it as an iceskating rink! Let alone the roads need a lot of attention, the road surfice is poor and will only get worse, congestion is bad enough in the morning so adding so many more cars to the equation will make it ridiculous! We have no infrastructure in any area's to accommodate such an increase of people to the area.

The proposed site is subject to flooding and there is not the infrastructure in Claerham to support such a development

This excessive level of development will most certainly have a damaging impact on an environment already under pressure from frequent episodes of flooding, and an infrastructure already at capacity.

A development of this nature and scale is not suitable in this location.
