There is no justification for Claybrooke Magna being given Selected Rural Village status. It is the planners totally ignoring local opinion.
Claybrooke Magna is a rural village and it is totally unsound as the goal posts were moved on a regular basis to justify planning policy. It does not undertake a duty to co-operate as the Policy is included despite extensive local objections had the key services, a Public House and a School been a requirement, the inclusion of Claybrooke Magna would not have arisen.
The school is in a different village with a separate Parish Council and to get to it children have to walk alongside a very busy road that has speeding problems, uneven paths and no street lighting. There is also dangerous parking problems around the school area with people having to cross between parked cars. This proposal is unsustainable, there are no local key services and people will have to drive out of the village for all their requirements other than a public house. This increasing traffic on already unsuitable roads.
