            SAVE AN IMPORTANT PART OF 
            THE VILLAGE OF LLANDYBIE

            Should you wish to object to the development of the field on which

            DOWNLOAD THE ATTACHED FORM stating your name and address at the top, 
            and then sign at the bottom of your form. Please return to either of 
            the following addresses:-

            no. 31 High Street (door next to the chemist)
            OR.no15 Blaenau Road
               
           HEREBY OBJECT to Outline Planning Application no AM/04508 and any 
            subsequent revision, amendments or new development application 
            regarding field no 5936 (for which the following reasons for 
            objection may still apply) on the following grounds,-
            *1.The Gorsedd stone circle is an important part of the heritage of 
            the village of Llandybie and should not be removed from its present 
            and original location.
            *2.The developer has failed to secure a suitable place for 
            relocation of the Gorsedd stone circle within the confines of the 
            village.
            *3.The access point for the development is approx 2 metres from the 
            wall of the Calvinistic Methodist chapel, the oldest chapel in the 
            village and Grade 2 listed building. Structural damage may result.
            *4. According to the developer’s submitted plans, public footpaths 
            which are on the Definitive maps are to be re-routed and blocked.
            *5. Field no. 5936 already has severe drainage problems. Once the 
            developer disrupts the field’s “lake” and underlying water strata, 
            it will exacerbate existing problems of flooding on Blaenau Rd, the 
            Square and Ammanford Rd. 
            *6. Density of this sporadic development is such as to give maximum 
            return for the developer without any due consideration to 
            surrounding environment. Field 5936 is the last “green field” site 
            in Llandybie. The developer intends to remove a large portion of 
            hedgerow and mature trees on the south side of this field.
            *7. The primary school generates pupil and parental pedestrian 
            traffic on defined footpaths that traverse the proposed site.Any 
            such development on this site would be detrimental to their safety. 
            *8. Any proposed development on the western side of field no. 5936 
            will be in a highly elevated position that not only overlooks 
            properties backing onto the site but would be clearly visible from 
            the village and its approach roads. Therefore it will be out of 
            character and appearance with the rest of the village.
            *9.The well being of the children of Llandybie primary school should 
            not be used as a bargaining tool for a private development and 
            personal profit.
            *10.Any development on field no. 5936 would result in an increase in 
            traffic in the centre of the village which is already busy, 
            congested and devoid of appropriate pedestrian crossings leading to 
            an increased risk of road accidents.
            *11.There is already adequate building land within the village.
