The trees and hedgerow in and around the site should be retained to protect the wildlife in around the area. With the planting of the tree line, this has made this a additional wildlife corridor. The tree line has a small area of scrub around the edge and this should also be retained. A full ecological survey should be carried out as many species use this area especially in relation to its location to the Grand Union Canel which itself is a conservation area. Protected species have been seen on this site.

The existing tree screen is coniferous planted by the farmer trying to take the easiest route to get the site developed. They are incompatible with local species and should be replaced as such. To ensure protection of the Ridgeline to the North, the woodland boundary should be widened from its current footprint to ensure any development does not intrude. To assist in this and meet other objectives reduce the number of houses proposed by one third.

Retention of existing hedgerows between the existing development and the farm track should also remain as they form a wildlife corridor.
