I object to the proposed developments which could lead to an estimated population increase of over 2,000, where local amenities, roads, schools + wildlife are already in need of attention.

- NHS - not enough local doctors, dentists. Russels Hall requires improvement already (per 4/21 inspection). Effect on ambulances too

- Road Effect - already congested, increase in noise + CO2 for local residents, A449 already struggles + Local/. Village Roads are ripped apart from drivers cutting through. No rail network, no cycle network, limited buses so A449 will suffer further.

- Schools - are currently full or over subscribed (per ofstead 2019) no reception places in Wall Heath for 2021, so where will the new residents attend school?

-Greenbelt - All Brownfield sites should be used before greenbelt, hedgerows around the area from A 'SLINC' + are essential for wildlife, mental health + future generations

-Holbeache Land is Grade 2 agricultural land, protected by the government's 25 years plan to look after land of this quality + use the soil in a sustainable way.

-Holbeach House is a Grade II Building of significant value

- Light pollution + impact of building work on residents, schools + Businesses.
