155 additional houses in Robertsbridge would prejudice the individual character of the village. Building on agricultural land in full sight of the road will destroy valuable green views. Building should be on brownfield sites, not green, and brownfield exists in the village. Additional risk of flooding due to non-absorbant surfaces. Increased congestion and pollution since the road system is already congested.
