Representation Summary:
The development, when considered with allocations sites 3233 and 1513 , means very little rural space gap left between Elstow and Shortstown and no gap between Elstow and Wixams which is unacceptable coalescence in the rural setting and landscape of these eastern clay vale villages and contradicts landscape assessment development guidelines.
The land incorporates attractive and biodiverse footpaths, watercourse and farmland birds such as yellowhammer (red list protected species) - I noted a grasshopper warbler summer 2020 which even if net gain was introduced we would lose as these birds need conditions that don't mix with houses and domestic animals.
