We live at (own) Donkey Lodge adjacent to the proposed site.

There are various initial comments to make:

1. The proposed plan outline in red (fig 69 FO15 p 222) cuts through our land.

2. Re the above, this is where our septic tank and associated soak away is situated. We also need access to this area which looks like it will be lost (emptying x 4 per year) - creating Hygiene, Safety and Environmental issues.

3. There is a proposal for a footway link to the intended properties in front of our property (fig 70 p223). Hobbs Lane is already narrow and already tries to accommodate articulated lorries to the industrial areas and large agricultural vehicles to and from the farms. A two or even one meter path as proposed will again, dig into our land and/or render the road impassable.

4. The plan outline ALSO includes a large proportion of arable farm land - not part of the industrial area! (> 50%)

5. Your document page 222 states that Manroy Engineering has failed to find another occupier (despite marketing) , yet there has never been any for sale/let signs seen on the property, neither has it EVER been maintained in a fit state as a reasonably marketable property, nor have we ever seen it advertised in any agents - so it is not surprising it is in disrepair.

6. We are seriously concerned as to how this proposal now affects the value of our property.

These are initial and personal concerns, and not part of a community objection.
